He also mentioned wood on the slab as a solution, but said that would eventually rot.
My screen porch has treated & painted 2"x 4"s attached to the slab. No signs of rot yet in 14 years. The screen is attached to the 2x4 framing with stainless steel staples. Then a I ripped down 2x4s into 1/4" strips to cover the staples and screen edges where it attaches to the 2x4 framing.
