Works directly inside Autodesk Revit. No exports, no external tools, no workflow disruption.

Zero Clashes

AI-powered clash detection ensures every fixture placement is structurally valid from the start.

INTE/IEC 60598 Illuminance Requirements

Reference lux levels, uniformity ratios, UGR limits, and colour rendering requirements per room type under INTE/IEC 60598.

Compliance & Enforcement

In Costa Rica, INTE/IEC 60598 establishes the technical standard for workplace lighting design. Compliance is enforced by MTSS / INS under Reglamento General de Seguridad e Higiene del Trabajo. Commercial and industrial projects must include lighting calculations in building permit documentation. Inspectors verify that illuminance levels meet minimum requirements during occupancy inspections. Non-compliance can expose building owners and employers to regulatory penalties and occupational health liability.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Costa Rica, INTE/IEC 60598 is referenced by MTSS / INS as the applicable technical standard under Reglamento General de Seguridad e Higiene del Trabajo. Compliance is de facto required for commercial and industrial building permit approval. Non-compliance with referenced standards creates liability exposure under occupational health and safety law.

Buildings that fail to meet minimum illuminance levels can receive corrective action notices from MTSS / INS. In regulated sectors — healthcare, education, industrial — inspectors have authority to halt operations until deficiencies are corrected. Beyond regulatory risk, poor lighting increases worker injury rates and associated liability costs.

Momik reads your Revit model room by room, automatically applies INTE/IEC 60598 illuminance targets for each space type, calculates the correct fixture placement, quantity, and layout, and generates a fully compliant lighting design — entirely within Revit. No manual lux calculations, no spreadsheets, no cross-referencing the norm tables. Typical projects are completed in under five minutes.
