Not very thick. Many building codes (perhaps most) allow 3/4 inch waferboard or 5'8 inch plywood as the structural subfloor over 16" O.C. joists.
This is fine for normal sized floors with carpet or vinyl overlay, but is insufficient for very large floors or floors to be finished in ceramic, slate or porcelain tiles.

Can 2x12x16ft carry a concrete floor 6 in thick?
To determine if a 2x12x16 ft beam can support a 6-inch thick concrete floor, you need to consider the weight of the concrete and the load-bearing capacity of the beam. A 6-inch thick concrete floor weighs approximately 150 pounds per cubic foot, totaling around 1,125 pounds per square foot. The 2x12 beam must be properly supported and spaced according to building codes to ensure it can bear this load without risk of failure. Consulting a structural engineer for specific calculations and safety assessments is recommended.
How thick should a sub floor be when installing marble tiles?
The sub floor should not be a problem if it hasn't been one for other reasons. What is most important is the installation of cement board over the sub floor to keep the tile and grout from cracking. Most marble tile used in residential buildings is not so heavy as to create weight issues.
