Implementing BERA Language on Autodesk Revit ArchitectureSeptember 1–November 30, 2011 Checking building design rules can be a tedious task for architects. Postdoctoral research scientist Jin Kook Lee from the Georgia Institute of Technology sought to make this process easier and more intuitive by implementing his domain-specific computer programming language called Building Environment Rule and Analysis (BERA) on Autodesk® Revit® Architecture software. Lee envisioned creating an easy-to-use interface that would enable designers to query Building Information Models and then retrieve and visualize information, such as spatial networks.

ResidentJin Kook Lee completed his PhD studies in the Design Computing Program at the Georgia Institute of Technology College of Architecture in December 2010. He spent the following year as a postdoctoral research scientist in the school’s Digital Building Laboratory, led by his advisor Professor Charles M. Eastman. Lee recently joined Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea, as a professor and is teaching BIM and design computing courses using AutoCAD®, Autodesk® 3ds Max®, and Autodesk Revit Architecture software.
