You really need to check the drawing details and specifications, the finished floor level is whatever is specified there. The level differs from job to job depending on the thickness of insulation and depth of the finished screed, whether you are including UFH, etc.

The footpath level is usually 150 - 200mm below finished floor level.

It must be below the level of the dpc to prevent dampness am i correct in saying that? Also what is the dimensions of a soap bar is it 440 x 110 x 110? thanks for reply
