As far as I know you cannot get the family size of an in-place family. To get the size of component families you need to export them to RFA's then get their size:

Document oFamDoc = oDocument.EditFamily(oFamily);

public static double FileSizeMBsGet(string strFilePathName)

{

try

{

FileInfo fInfo = new FileInfo(strFilePathName);

{

return Math.Round(Convert.ToDouble(fInfo.Length / 1024) / 1000, 2);

}

catch

{

return 0;

}

HI @dhanait_ajay13
Can I know what size you exactly needed from the family? Needed Family file size or any other?
