How strong is my floor?

I'm planning to put a jetted tub in a bathroom, but I'm concerned that
the floor may not support it adequately. I understand I need 15lbs per
square foot?? How far apart should the joists be, and if they are not
close enough, how can I improve support?
Thanks
There's a simple test. Rent a cow for the weekend. Walk the cow into
your bathroom. If the floor holds the cow, you are fine. If not you
need to replace the floor and the cow, but you'll have lots of
hamburgers to complete the job.
