Floorplans..

Even before we got the keys to our place, we have started the ID search with the floorplan given by HDB. The floorplan is pretty much to scale, and does indicate which are the structural supports in the unit. ie. no hacking of support beams.

I've also done a 3D mockup using Google Sketch Up


However, it does not contain the electrical, water supply and other structural layouts.

Only upon entering our house do we realise that some stupid architect has managed to place unhackable support beams at the most awkward places..grr.. that's one of the cost of buying HDB. No nice condo designs :(
