Is this for one wheel or all four wheels, i.e does one add 1.0 million foot pounds or 4.0 million foot pounds correction? see the bold blue below.

It seems to apply to FAA and JAA ops.

FCOM VOL 1
737-800W/CFM56-7B26
FAA
Category C/N Brakes


ADVISORY INFORMATION
Recommended Brake Cooling Schedule
Adjusted Brake Energy Per Brake (Millions of Foot Pounds)
No Reverse Thrust

-tables omitted-

Observe maximum quick turnaround limit.
Table shows energy per brake added by a single stop with all brakes operating. Energy is assumed to be
equally distributed among the operating brakes. Total energy is the sum of residual energy plus energy
added.
Add 1.0 million foot pounds per brake for each taxi mile.

You would add 1 million foot pounds as each table before correction is per brake anyway.
