Published floor pressure–from the spec sheet, when listed

Heaviest wheel–published max wheel load

Average pressure spreads the total weight over the footprint. Real loads concentrate under the wheels, so slabs can fail locally even when the average looks fine. Ask a structural engineer before working on suspended slabs, mezzanines or older floors.
