For the most part you can simply treat them as strings. What is
happening that shouldn't be happening, or what should be happening,
but isn't?

$str_a = (string)$a;
$str_b = "$b"

Does that not work? What happens when you do that? Personally I'd use
$str = "$c$a$b";

I tried:
[rory@mybox ~]$ cat > test.php
<?php

$a = 1; $b = 2; $c = 0;

$str = $c . $a . $b;

echo $str;

?>
[rory@mybox ~]$ php -q test.php
012
