Best Answer

all depends how the floor is constructed and the size of the joists, the span of the joists, thickness of floorboards. Is it a concrete floor. Is it a 'live' load like people of furniture or a 'dead' load like an unsupported wall. It the house an old building or of recent construction. A residential standard suggests 40lb per square foot. Needs confirmation though
