I drew around the tray on some 15mm ply, and then on the curvy edge cut about 20mm back from my line. I then made another copy for the base. I then fixed 8x lengths of 2x3 timber front to back between the 2 sheets of ply, leaving space for the waste pipe.
Fitted in the base and bonded to the floor, then affixed the shower tray to the top of the frame using silicone.
I just cut the front edge 20mm back, so that I could fit a PVC trim to the front slightly set back. The other 3 sides I kept inline with the edge off the tray.
Obviously use the smallest timbers you can to get the required fall on the waste. Unfortunatly mine had to be quite high as lowering the waste was not possible

Yes normal ply top and bottom, no need for marine ply as you don't intend it to get wet!
That's going to be quite a high shower unfortunately. To make mine look decent I wrapped around (in 2 sections) the front with some sort of plastic coated foam board, and bonded it in place, looked good.
