The drain has to be slightly lower than the rest of the floor. If you tile over a cement floor, it will very gently slope down to a central drain, or a drain at the end. Try to visit some that have been done the way you want to help envision this.

How thick should each layer of mud be when floating a shower floor with a pan?
The floor should be floated a minimum of 1 1/4" around the drain with dry pack mortar. A slope of 1/4" per ft from the drain to the perimeter is also necessary. Even more important than the slope of the drypack on top of the liner is a pre-slope under the liner or hot mop to achieve proper drainage. Also, make sure to clear out the weep holes and use either spacers or crushed tile to put on top of weep holes before floating pan for proper drainage. Well, there you go. A ample draining, properly floated shower pan.
What are the effects if you change the wing twist angle?
The wing twist angle is introduced to prevent stall from occurring at the wing tip before than the wing root. Usually wings are 'washout' twisted, resulting in a decreasing angle of attack starting from the root and towards the tip. Precisely, the twist angle is the angle between the zero-lift line of the profile in the current section and the zero-lift line of the root profile. As the twist angle increases along the span, the lower is the local angle of attack and the lower is the lift generated. By this we prevent the wing tip from generating as much lift as the wing root, which may cause the stall to occur at the worst place we'd like it to occur, the ailerons. By washout twist, we obtain to make stall occur at the wing root, without lost of ailerons control.

Tips For Updating Bathroom Shower Stalls?
Remodeling your bathroom doesn't have to cost a fortune. There are low-cost alternatives available to give your bathroom a fresh new look. One of the problem areas of the bathroom is the shower stall. Bathroom shower stalls that are discolored and moldy can be improved by installing shower liners. These liners slip over the existing shower area and are a low-cost alternative to prefabricated showers. Search online for a low-cost shower liner at discount home stores. Another good idea to improve the look of your shower stall is to consider painting it. You only need sandpaper, primer and a paint sprayer to make your shower look like new again. This method will save you the most money when remodeling your bathroom. Buy a good shower cleaner and 320 grit sandpaper at the hardware store. You also need to sponges, primer and a good epoxy-based paint. Sand the shower stall and finish with a deep cleaning of the entire bath area. Rinse the stall with clean water until you have removed all traces of residue. Let the shower stall dry for at least 24 hours. The next step is to use a paint sprayer to apply a primer to the shower stall. If you don't have a paint sprayer, then you can rent one at your local home improvement store. If you decide to purchase a new sprayer, then shop around and compare prices to get the best deal. Lightly coat the shower stall with the primer. Let the primer dry at least one day or according to manufacturer's suggestion. Choose an epoxy-based paint that will coordinate with the rest of the bathroom. Spray the paint lightly and evenly across the shower stall. Let dry for at least another 24 hours. Your shower stall will look like new again. Applying a new coat of paint to your bathroom walls and cabinets is a quick way to update the entire room. Remove the hardware from the cabinets or apply painters tape. Make sure the cabinets are empty before you start painting. Use a good paint brush for the best results. Painting your bathroom can be completed in just one weekend.

There is a chance that your shower head is at the wrong setting. The shower head usually has a screen on it. That screen can get clogged causing water pressure to not feel as strong. Carefully remove the screen and wipe and rinse any debris in a sink (make sure the sink is plugged so that the shower screen doesn't go down the drain).
Is it safe to have electrical wiring behind the drywall of your shower?
On wiring a house it is common practice to have other circuits in the wall cavity passing by the built in shower stall. Electrical outlets that face outward from the shower stall wall that service another room is also common practice. There is no danger from electrical shock as the shower is isolated from the wires by wall board and usually ceramic tiles that make up the shower stall or in some cases a fiberglass shower enclosure.Do you mean inside the shower area, or outside the shower area?It is never safe to have any electrical outlets:inside a shower cubiclenext to a bathnext to a sinknext to a hand wash basinin any other kind of wet areaThere are very strict wiring codes and regulations about where you can place a socket outlet. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR INSTRUCTIONS HEREBECAUSE YOU NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELYYOU MUST CALL IN A LICENSED ELECTRICIANTO DO IT FOR YOU.ANSWERIf your question should be read as "Is it safe to have electrical outlets on the other side of a wall to a shower area, such as in a dry room like a bedroom, etc., normally the answer would be Yes, but it is best to check with a licensed electrician to be sure. Always be sure to switch off the breakers at the main panel before you attempt to do any work on any mains power circuit.--------------------This is something I wondered when I gutted my fiberglass shower enclosure and noticed that there was an electrical box behind one of the walls servicing a hall light switch and yet another box on the back wall behind the shower enclosure serving the light fixture and exhaust fan to the master bath. It doesn't feel right to have electrical so close to water. In my townhouse they only used gypsum board behind the fiberglass enclosure with no plastic vapor barrier. So, I have to think about how to remodel the shower with these two electrical boxes in the mix.
Why would a shower make a squeaking noise 20 minutes after turned off then drip water?
if its just a shower and no tub spout then it most likely must be in your shower head and if its a hand held shower head (with a flexible hose attached) it most likely has a bad seal or some other way which allows air to get inside and drain the water out slowly. The same can be for a shower with a tub spout diverter and the shower head has a bad seal thus letting the water drain down the tub spout and it can be a real slow leak to cause the squeaking noise 20 minutes later, my guess of the squeaking noise would come from the air being pushed inside the shower head.
