Best Waterproof/Sloping Method

Couple questions for the team:


Below are some pictures of a new house going up that the owners want 2 curbless showers installed. Notice they poured the concrete in the shower areas 1.5" below the rest of the concrete (Notice the 2x4" border)


With that a couple of questions:


1.      One of the showers drains seems to be off center.  Would you recommend moving the drain to the center?   Possibly have to remove some concrete and repair.


2.      Would you recommend dry pack to slope these showers or a kerdi foam pan?  (Open to other options).  If

dry pack is the recommended method, what would you use to waterproof?


Thank you all in advance

The peel and stick Ditra Heat is not for wet areas...

The drain should probably be centered. Dry pack and sheet membrane the way to go but like Ben said the outside floor needs to be ditra first then set the drain off that and float.
