Using tap connection type to saddle in to another pipe

In Building Systems I am trying to saddle in a 6"
pipe into a 10" pipe(header). It will only show up
correctly when I saddle in 4" pipe or smaller. I say "saddle" meaning I do not want to use a tee but rather a kind of weld olet connection. I change from tee to tap in preferences to achieve this, but like I said, I cannot get a 6 or 8" to tap into a 10".

Any suggestions?

Hi David,

 

It seems like the pipe catalog doesn't have
any tap bigger than 4". You can add sizes to the catalog with Content Builder or
Catalog Editor.

 

Hope this helps!
