Distance Between Legs On 9' Diamond Pro-Am?

I'm looking at whether or not I need to consider extra floor support for 9' Diamond Pro-Am table I will be getting. I can find the general table dimensions online, but I cannot seem to find the width and length dimensions at the contact points of the legs with the floor. I did find a schematic online but it was only for their professional line and the legs are very different. It may have the same contact point dimensions but I'd like to be sure.

Can anyone give me the actual distance between the contact points with the floor (length and width) on the legs of a 9' Diamond Pro-Am table? It would be greatly appreciated.

What are your concerns regarding floor support? Where is the table going?

Any decently built room can support a pool table. If its a barn loft or something similar you may need extra support.

Thanks garczar. This is on a second story. The floor support beams I have are plenty strong but I am still interested in where the legs will sit with relation to the beams in case I want to shore up how the beams are connected. I may be overthinking this but I would rather be safe than sorry.

the weight is spread over four fairly widely spaced points. i've seen lots of 9ft table upstairs and none require any struct. re-enforcement.

.....To add...the base of the legs are about 5 inch squares. If you have access to the underside of the floor there is no harm in properly adding extra support to it. It may prevent the table from going unlevel or balls on the table shaking when people walk around the room. I would do it.

If these possibilities are even a remote concern i wouldn't put a table in the room. If the table is going to go un-level or balls move from walking what you have is sub-standard construction to say the least. I'd be checking the fkng wiring before i worried about a pool table. I've been playing 40yrs and have played on at least 50 home set-ups and not one person had an issue with one.

Ok.

My experience has been different.

The OP should do what he feels most comfortable with.

Thank you Dead Money, this is exactly what I was looking for, but I couldn't seem to find it. I also laughed at your "balls move when you walk by the table" comment. At the first house I bought, I had that exact issue on one side of the table. I thought the floor felt okay until that table went in. The balls wouldn't actually move laterally around the table unless you were doing something stupid, but you could feel a slight up and down of everything as you walked on that side. Fortunately the house I am currently in was built much better.

garczar, I also appreciate what you are saying. I am likely overthinking this but I have easy access to the underside of the floor and it is one of those things where I may sleep better at night by having this overengineered a little bit. I'll see where these legs are going to sit with relation to the main supports and make a decision based on that.
