In this paper, we generalize the vector space construction due to Brickell [5]. This generalization, introduced by Bertilsson [1], leads to perfect secret sharing schemes with rational information rates in which the secret can be computed efficiently by each qualified group. A one to one correspondence between the generalized construction and linear block codes is stated. It turns out that the approach of minimal codewords by Massey [15] is a special case of this construction. For general access structures we present an outline of an algorithm for determining whether a rational number can be realized as information rate by means of the generalized vector space construction. If so, the algorithm produces a perfect secret sharing scheme with this information rate. As a side-result we show a correspondence between the duality of access structures and the duality of codes.
