You would have to build a platform for the tub to sit on. About 3 inches if you are using a floor drain. There is a trap right after the floor drain so you would not need one at the tub. If possible you could position the tub directly over the floor drain but that would eliminate the floor drain which would be a problem if the basement every flooded.
