I'm ok with code venting requirements, but couldn't find anything about burying the p-trap under the pan and under the newly poured concrete I had to bust out to do the rough-in. If I moved the trap away from the shower strainer to have access to it I'd have a 3.5' straight run, which seems like a bad plan. How should I proceed?
Also a new subfloor will be installed being, 1/2 ESP rigid foam and 3/4T&G OSB. There is a floor drain in the bathroom I would like to eliminate, If I got enough water to make it to the drain, it would also be running out the patio doors (a walkout basement) and the osb would be trashed anyway. I have good gutters, drained window wells, an exterior perimeter drain, and being built on a hillside it is graded so rainwater is diverted around the foundation, the basement has never had water in it in the 17 years we've been here. Is there an acceptable method to cap the floor drain besides doing more concrete demo and capping off the drain pipe?
