Shower waste pipe

[tommy1712]

customer wants a flush level shower but the joists run the wrong way to route the waste. Any other ideas other than building a plinth that she is not keen on. She is saying just notch the joists errrrr NO

Make the whole floor a plinth.

Just depends how deep the joists are ???

Can you not run the waist any other way might be a longer run but you can size up to 2" or up to 4" once outside?

Or straight down through the ceiling assuming the bathrooms not on the ground floor and then out and box it in or lower the downstairs ceiling

even in a 250mm joist you can not notch for a 11/4 pipe without a fall.

you can get a waste in the drill zone of a joist if its deep enough. 0.25 x depth

lifting the floor or waste underneath is other options unless you want to try and fit a pump somewhere but they are normally a pain.

The tray is going on a platform made out of 2-4 and wbp ply end of lol

This is the trouble when the customer goes to a showroom or looks in a brochure sees a low level tray.

Then the fun starts lol

i think the retailers need to make customers aware that it's not as simple as dumping the tray on the floor all the time
