Missing PipeNetwork and Structure classes in Civil 3D .NET API
Developers are unable to access core classes like PipeNetwork, Pipe, and Structure within the AeccDbMgd.dll assembly. This prevents the programmatic merging of pipe networks and the manipulation of parts via .NET plugins.

The type or namespace name 'PipeNetwork' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Although I’ve referenced AeccDbMgd.dll, Visual Studio cannot find types like: PipeNetwork Pipe Structure
I checked the DLL using dotPeek and confirmed that the classes aren't exposed there — only extension methods like GetPipeNetworkIds() are available.
