That's 4 tonnes per square meter. If you have a suspended floor that will only span two joists on either 400mm or 600mm centres. No way in hell that any joist is going to accept that load. A quick google and found some joist charts and they go up to 1.5 tonnes per square meter. But even then that probably assume a distributed load.
If you have a suspended floors you're boned. If you have concrete you'll probably want a structural engineer to calculate the load based on the known screed thickness. It's entirely feasible it can be put down it may be you need a spreader plinth to reduce the point loading.
