The bathtub trap for a tub located directly on a slab foundation is in the soil under the concrete slab. The builder should have left a small opening in the foundation around drain and trap so that it may be serviced in the future. WIth some excavation you should find the trap about eight inches below the slab surface probably in the direction of a wall where the drain vent stack will rise up through the foundation as well.
