Conclusion:
10 units of 3100lm incandescent pendant light fixture and 12 units of 1300lm wall mounted
incandescent light fixture can give a total illuminance of 300 lux to the dining area, which fulfils the
requirement of MS1525.

Conclusion:
The reverberation time for the indoor dining area is 1.05s, which is almost 1s. the reverberation time for
a small room is 1s standard. This proves that this area has good reverberation time.
