# How to add new structures or pipes/drains sizes in Genieko Library?

With no similar diameters between the MiTS catalog and the Genieko Gravity Pipe Network library for the structures (nodes) or pipes/drains, the synchronization will fail with a verification error: “***Unable to Swap Part to the size….***”, as in the image below.

With the Genabler plugin, users have the flexibility to *add specific sizes for the structures and pipes* easily— there is no need to go through the trouble of adding the diameters or modeling the required sizes through the **PartBuilder** **in Civil 3D**.

**Note:**The steps below are ONLY applicable to the **Genieko Gravity Pipe Network Library**.

# **Steps to resource up:**

1. Go to the Genabler tab in Civil 3D.

1. Navigate to the **Resource Up** section.

## **Add sizes for structures:**

1. Click on the ‘Add Sizes Structure’ button.

1. The software will open the **Add Gravity Part Sizes** dialog. Users will need to click on the ‘Circular’ or ‘Rectangle’ tab depending on the shape of the structures to be added.

1. Input the **Inner Diameter, in mm**. Click on the ‘Add’ button.
   - For example, add a Rectangular Sump with sizes: **InnerW=1400, InnerH= 1400**

# **Where to check the added sizes?**

1. With the network synced ‘half successfully” (due to some unavailable sizes for the structures or pipes/drains), select any of the pipes or structures available in the drawing.

1. At the top ribbon, click on the ‘Part List’ button.
