AB  - This  paper  presentsan  approachthataims  to suggest  toConstruction experts a  formal representation  of  given  requirements. When  available  as  formal  expressions,  requirements are  suitable  for  automatic  compliance  checking. The  goal  of  conformity  checking  is  to answer the question “which components of a building project are non-compliant  to  a set of construction  rules?”. When  we  considerboth the  size  and  the  complexity  of  corpora  of construction   requirements,   a   computer-aided compliancechecking   process   would   be beneficial  for  experts.  Such  checking  process  requires  a  formal  representation  of  building projects  and  construction  rules.  Nowadays,  there  are  various tools for the formal  designing of  building  products  obeying  to  the  Industry  Foundation  Classes  (IFC)standard  (e.g.  Revit Buildingof Autodesk, ArchiCADby Graphisoft, and ACTIVe3dby ARCHIMEN GROUP). On the  other  hand,  to the best  of  our knowledge, there  isn’t  any  tool  which  allows  business experts  to  convert  automatically  and  in  a  formal  language,  construction rules  written  in natural  language.  We  propose an  approach  which  intendsto convert automaticallynatural language  requirementsinto  formal  expressions.  This  approach relies  on  the  IfcOWL ontology and represents formalrules as SPARQL queriesusing the RAINS language asaninterimresult.RAINS  is  a  controlled  natural  language(CNL),  whose  sentences  can  be transformed  automatically  into  SPARQL  queries,  and  as  a  CNL  it  hides  the  complexity  of formal languages.
