I am remodeling a bathroom and thinking of adding a claw foot tub. I know these are popular, but I am wondering, how do you keep from cracking floor tile under the feet? The tub is a couple of hundred pounds (cast iron), add 40 gallons of water and a 200 pound person, seems like a lot of point load on 4 small feet, especially if the floor flexes a bit.

thanks
Fred Emmerich
