The computer capabilities at Michael Brady Inc. are among the most advanced in the Architectural/Engineering field. In addition to utilizing the latest Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) software for 3D modeling and design document production, a high speed local area network system helps Michael Brady Inc. push the envelope of architectural computing technology. Michael Brady Inc. was also one of the first full service design firms to offer “Live Design” to it clients where owners can actively participate in the critical decision-making process in “real time” with the project architects and designers.

Michael Brady Inc. uses the most current software available, and continues to update its more than 90 workstations with the latest advancements in technology. At this time, our CAD capabilities include AutoCAD Architectural Desktop 2008 , Autodesk REVIT 2008 (building information modeling), Autodesk REVIT 2008 MEP, Autodesk Civil3D, and Autodesk Land Desktop 2008. Structural analysis capabilities include RAM Structural System, RAM Advanse and Staad.Pro. These structural design software products possess the ability to export framing plans to AutoCAD or to link and distribute information to the Revit Structure software. Photo-realistic computer modeling and rendering capabilities are also available using Autodesk Viz 2008. Our multiple in-house plotter and printer capabilities allow us to produce A-E size plots and prints of everything from large scale engineering plans, to large format color renderings and photo grade computer graphics.
