Sewage systems design includes computations and drafting. This paper is about the development of a drawing data file pre‐processor (generator) applied to sewage design. The numerical results are used to generate a file with the description of essential elements to be used in computer aided design (CAD) systems. The files are generated in a neutral data format, aiming at portability among CAD systems. This paper presents computer graphics standardization as a way to draw data file characterization.
