- A twenty three-cell girder.
- A blank cap-plate for ending girders.
- A docking ring.
- A larger docking pad.
- A six way girder connector.
- An 'umbilical' tube, to either connect ships inside the drydock with the ouside world, or to run through girders as an access tube.
- A small umbilical piece, to connect larger umbilicals.
- A 90 degree bend, for turning corners with the umbilicals, and creating intersections.
- A cylindircal gas tank, with a set of "habitation pod"textures.
