Robert,

I built a 32'x50' a few years ago, some people thought I was crazy. Now, you'd be surprised how "small" it's gotten. Course my parent's are storing their 24' 5th wheel camper and their 18' boat inside, which doesn't help! Anyway, "someday" I would like to add on to one side to create a tool room, maybe 15' wide by 20' or so. Anyway, I thought it would be great to add a bathroom. So, what's the trick to having the plumbing hidden so the inspector won't see it? Doesn't the fitting for a toilet need to be on the surface of the cement?

Skim a coat of concrete over the hole with some support underneath. After the inspection, break it out. Worked great for ummm...a friend of mine

 

use an inside fitting flange. did mine with 3" fitting and put a small bowl and some foam around the pipe to center the bowl. then you find the level of your floor and cut the pipe about 1/8 shorter. duct tape works well for keeping the bowl from moving.

OH....we started a 8:00 and I now have a finished floor ...now I need to figure out what wall heights and rafters I need and get busy.

Here is a picture of the new floor.
