Structures Tab (Network Parts List Dialog Box)

Use this tab to view or change the structure sizes included in the parts list.

You can add new structure sizes to the parts list or remove structure sizes from the parts list. Each size selection matches a part size from a part family in the part catalog. Optional properties may also be set on the part size. The combined set of selected and optional properties is assigned to the structure when it is inserted into the drawing.

Name

This tree view displays the name of the parts list at the top level, and then the names of the part families included in the parts list, and then the names of the part sizes included in each part family. Note when a new size is added to the parts list, it is assigned a default unique name. The size name can be edited (renamed) to any unique name within the part family size list.

Style

Specifies the default style assigned to the structure when it is inserted into the drawing. Select a part family and click the Select All Edit icon to assign the selected style to all part sizes within that family.

Rules

Specifies the default rules assigned to the structure when it is inserted into the drawing. Select a part family and click the Select All Edit icon to assign the selected style to all part sizes within that family.

Render Material

Specifies the default render material assigned to the structure when it is inserted into the drawing. Select a part family and click the Select All Edit icon to assign the selected style to all part sizes within that family.

Rate Item

Specifies the rate item ID assigned. Select a part family, or a part size within a part family, and then click to assign a rate item to all part sizes within that family, or to an individual part size within that family.

Structure Type
Displays the structure type and provides access to the Drainage Structure Parameter Mapping Configuration dialog box where you can specify the structure type and map additional parameters for parts created with Part Builder. For more information about parameter mapping, see To Map Drainage Structure Parameters for Gravity Network Analysis.
  • Parts created with Part Builder: The Structure Type column displays <none> if parameter mapping has not yet occurred. After parameter mapping has occurred, the Structure Type column displays the specified structure type. To specify the structure type and to map additional parameters, click to open the Drainage Structure Parameter Mapping Configuration dialog box.
  • Parts created with Infrastructure Parts Editor: The Structure Type column displays the structure type.
    Note: Parameter mapping is required only for parts created with Part Builder. Parts created with the Infrastructure Parts Editor already have the parameters that are required for the Analyse Gravity Network command. If you click , the Drainage Structure Parameter Mapping Configuration dialog box will be displayed but will alert you that parameter mapping is not required for parts created with the Infrastructure Parts Editor.
