Finishing to threshold over cavity - timber floor.
Discussion
Although I'm sure there were ways in which this should have been done differently, and I suspect there might be a few wrongs in it but I need to rectify it so that I can finish the chipboard floor to the door opening.
Suspended timber floor which is bolted up to the inner leaf. Top of the Inner leaf is around 40mm below top of joist height. Cavity isn't filled between it.
The timbers are insulated between with 75mm foil backed insulation so ideally want to finish over this with it to prevent cold bridging but don't want to introduce damp.
Whats the best way to do this?

There is a dpc under the frame, and there is expanding foam under it. Bifold is top hung. Regardless of that, I need some assistance with finishing this gap.
Current thought is to bag it in DPM and fill level with concrete. I could do with avoiding a cold bridge however. I also want to run the board to the door but I'm not sure whether anything can be battened to the outer course.
