Hello. I removed a large light structure from my 1990s kitchen ceiling in order to install canless led lights and learned the p-trap from the shower in the floor above rests 5" below the joists preventing me from installing drywall flush with the joists. I am wondering what my options are for reconfiguring the p-trap.
The joists are 9.5" in height. The bottom of the p-trap sits 5" below the bottom of the joist. The shower drain pipe connects to the air vent and then main waste pipe. The distance from the center of the p-trap to the connection to the air vent is 17".
I mocked up a potential solution on paper shown here though don't know if that would constitute an s-trap or other code violation. Thank you for any input you could provide.
