The aim of the invention is to provide a shower floor element and a shower floor construction, which permit an extremely simple, cost-effective production, in particular in situ and/or a more reliable sealing system in relation to prior art. To achieve this, a waterproof film (4) is applied to the upper face of a support element (3) consisting of a hard expanded plastic with a relatively high density of approximately 100 g per cubic decimetre or more and is sealed to said support element. This enables the pre-fabrication of a shower floor element, so that during the installation in situ a tile covering or other covering (9) can be directly applied to the film. If a suitable material is selected, said film (4) can also be welded to the support element (3). Preferred connection methods are bonding or welding. Depending on the material, a shrinking or deep drawing process can also optionally be used, or a negative pressure can be produced between the film and the support element, causing the two materials to adhere to one another.

L'objectif de l'invention est de permettre la production très simple et peu coûteuse, sur place d'un élément de receveur de douche et la construction dudit receveur et/ou d'une étanchéité plus sûre que la technique antérieure. A cet effet, la partie supérieure d'un élément support (3) en mousse rigide, présentant une épaisseur relativement élevée d'environ 100g par décimètre cube ou plus est dotée d'un film imperméable (4) et étanche, ledit élément de receveur de douche pouvant être préfabriqué, de sorte que, lors de la construction sur place, un carrelage ou un autre revêtement (9) peut être placé directement sur le film. Ledit film (4) peut être soudé avec l'élément support (3) grâce à un choix de matériau approprié. Le collage ou le soudage sont des fixations recommandées. Selon le matériau, un type d'affaissement ou un phénomène d'emboutissage peut se produire ou bien une dépression peut se créer entre le film et l'élément support, de sorte que les deux matériaux adhèrent l'un à l'autre.
