How to include a pipe in an existing corridor?

Hi,

 

In a project I have 10 different types of pipe networks which are drawn in 3D. I have referenced them in another drawing (through shortcut) and I am working on the cut/fill volumes for these pipelines. I have already prepared a profile from the alignment which goes along the pipes in one of my streets. All parts that I wanted to be included in my corridor calculations are already added to the profile. The Assembly works well by linking to far right and far left to the side slopes. 

The problem is that the stormwater pipe (the green one) is not included in the tranch between sections +0/016 to +0/030. Before and after that, the trnach geometry is affected by this pipe and the pipe is included in the corridor.

 

How can I add this pipe to the trench?

 

Thank you for your attention in advance.

I'm confused. You say "the stormwater pipe (the green one) is not included in the tranch between sections +0/016 to +0/030." The section views in your screenshot do show this pipe. Are you asking to draw the trench around the pipe?

@tcorey Sorry for not being clear enough. What I ment is that despite the fact we see the pipe section around the corridor, it is not taken into account when Civil 3D calculated the shape of the corridor. Then this pipe and the trench around it cannot be included in the cut/fill calculations of this corridor. So is there a way to force Civil 3D to consider this pipe as part of bigger trench and design the corridor for all of the pipes altogether?

Corridors do not consider pipes. What are you expecting to happen? to the Corridor? to the Pipe Network?

I expect that the geometry of the corridor adjust so the pipe falls into the corridor. I mean the corridor extends so the the required space for the pipe and its distance to the side slope would be taken into account when I calculate the cut-fill volumes.
