I believe this is a factory default and therfore you cant add a new family,
use must use the three provided: Basic Wall, Curtain Wall or Stacked Wall.
You could create projects for your wall types and import when needed. As
long as you open your current project and then your wall types project, use
the Transfer Projects Standards tool and just select Wall Types.

For the life of me I cannot locate a thread or a help file to confirm this,
so I figure I'll let the experienced users (I'm definitely not one) solve
this one. Our office is just now implementing Revit, and I need to create
our wall standards. I understand that walls are system and not component
families, but I can't figure out a way to edit or add categories to the
standard list, Basic Wall, Curtain Wall, and Stacked Wall. I could deal
with this limitation if I could create folders or groups within each "Basic
Wall Category," but I haven't been successful. I'm trying to avoid have 50+
wall types show up under Basic Wall.
Would anyone mind showing a snap shot of how they have their tree organized?
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks.
