An automated system to draw detailed networks for use in various types of engineering analysis and simulations. Nodes can be activated from a set of available node sites. Elements between nodes are automatically drawn by specifying the node start and node end of each element and selecting a draw command and utilizing stored data arrays and graphical software system for input and display of network based computations. A speed draw command can alternatively activate the next node site for the direction command selected and connect the starting and ending nodes with the next available element in a single command. Elements can also contain various attribute types that are displayed and edited on an element toolbar when elements are selected. Values stored in unique data arrays are then available for use in engineering computations.
