Why Momik for Singapore?

500× Faster

What takes weeks manually, Momik does in minutes. Fully automated lighting layout in Revit.

SS 531 Built In

Every design meets SS 531 requirements automatically. No manual norm-checking needed.

Native Revit

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.

SS 531 Illuminance Requirements

Reference lux levels, uniformity ratios, UGR limits, and colour rendering requirements per room type under SS 531.

Room / Task Type Illuminance (Em) Uniformity (Uo) Glare (UGR) Colour (Ra)
Open-plan office500 lx≥ 0.60≤ 19≥ 80
Meeting / conference room500 lx≥ 0.60≤ 19≥ 80
Reception / lobby300 lx≥ 0.40≤ 22≥ 80
Corridor / circulation100 lx≥ 0.40≤ 28≥ 40
Staircase150 lx≥ 0.40≥ 40
Toilet / WC200 lx≥ 0.40≤ 25≥ 80
Warehouse (general)200 lx≥ 0.40≤ 25≥ 60
Manufacturing (med. prec.)500 lx≥ 0.60≤ 19≥ 80

Compliance & Enforcement

In Singapore, SS 531 sets the national standard for workplace and building illumination. Building and Construction Authority (BCA) / MOM oversees technical compliance under SS 531 Code of Practice for Lighting. Building permit applications for commercial and industrial projects require lighting design calculations. Periodic workplace inspections verify ongoing compliance with minimum illuminance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. In Singapore, SS 531 is adopted as the national standard for workplace illumination. Building and Construction Authority (BCA) / MOM oversees compliance under SS 531 Code of Practice for Lighting. Building permits for commercial and industrial developments require lighting calculations demonstrating conformity. Workplace safety inspections include verification of minimum illuminance levels.

Buildings that fail to meet SS 531 requirements can receive improvement notices from Building and Construction Authority (BCA) / MOM. In severe cases, occupancy permits may be revoked until lighting is retrofitted to meet minimum levels. Employers also face occupational health liability if inadequate lighting contributes to worker injuries or health issues.

Momik reads your Revit model room by room, automatically applies SS 531 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.
