Pouring the Shower Pan

Over the past couple of nights, Travis has been working on pouring the shower pan in the master bathroom and I was helping by supervising. He cut the drain hole to size and since it sits just a little bit higher, he put backerboard down so that it all sits at the same height
Then, we went to put the shower pan liner down and stapled it towards the top so that we would have any potential holes for any water to seep through. Another piece went on the drain as well.

Then, the actual drain piece was screwed to the height. The slope should be at least 1/4 inch for every foot to ensure the water actually drains. So, the backerboard was then put up to indicate where the slope should start at the wall.

And finally, the mixture was poured to make the slope to the drain. The mixture was supposed to be about 4 parts sand to 1 part cement. I think we got it a bit to watery because we were just throwing sand all over it to dry it out some more. It was a lot more difficult to slope it than we originally anticipated. I think tomorrow we are going to dump some water in the pan to make sure it drains like it is supposed to. After that we are just going to pour a heavy coat of the water sealant that I have been using under my tile on the cement floors.
