Prior to placing mortar for your shower pan build, your subfloor should be flat and suitably strong. I used 3/4″ plywood over reinforce floor joists. You will need to install the lower portion of the shower drain assembly installed (see How to Build a Shower: Framing and Plumbing for shower drain install details)
If building a shower curb, you have two main options: Use lumber (stacked 2x4s or 2x6s) or blocks as a curb core. Use forms to pour a concrete curb. I used option #1, using 3 stacked 2x4s to form a curb. To do the same, stack and fasten several (I used 3) 2x4s sequentially to the subfloor. First, screw the bottom 2 x 4 to the subfloor, and then screw the second 2 x 4 to the fastened first 2 x 4 and repeat to desired curb height. Then fasten metal mesh to the lumber curb to help hold mortar to it, which will be applied with the first mortar layer. You may also skip attaching mesh and a first layer of mortar to the curb lumber and simply wrap the shower liner directly over the 2 x 4s, skipping the bottom mortar layer on the curb and just applying a top, final, mortar layer on top of the shower liner.
Create the shower pan “box” form by installing blocking between wall framing members. Use framing pieces or sheathing material as blocking. I used scraps of the leftover 3/4″ subfloor plywood. The blocking should be at least as high as the shower curb.
Prepare the bottom of the should pan box for the first mortar layer by installing a layer of asphalt felt over the subfloor plywood. This felt layer will serve as a moisture barrier for the first layer of mud helping the mortar to retain moisture while curing. It will also help to isolate the subfloor from the shower pan. Install the asphalt felt to cover the entire bottom surface of the shower pan, cutting an opening for the drain. Secure with several staples. Over the asphalt felt, install a layer of mortar reinforcement mesh. Use galvanized hardware cloth (metal mesh) or a plastic or synthetic reinforcement mesh. If using a metal mesh, bend to create slight waves in the material to improve embedding of the mesh within the mortar layer. If using metal mesh, use care to avoid sharp edges above the mortar layer that could damage the to-be-installed shower liner which will lay above the first reinforced mortar layer. If using a slope guide system like the Goof Proof Pre-Pitch (STD-201)
