More details please and maybe a picture. Concrete floor with floor drain, right? Move they shower over and make an indirect drain connection or break up some concrete and remove the floor drain trap.
You can do that but it is not a good look and can be an issue if you ever sell the place. Build a base out of pressure treated lumber with a pressure treated plywood sub floor. Set your stall on this ply and be sure to put down about 16 baseball sized clumps of structolite or modified thinset, this stops the floor from creeking. Use PVC connected to the shower drain, make a 90 turn toward the floor drain and another 90 directly above the drain, drop a PVC line staright down into mthe floor drain as far as it can reach, the floor drain is already your trap. This is what a indirect drain is.
