Dining tables are available in round, square, oval, oblong or rectangular shapes. Table size requirements depend on the formality of the meal and the number of people to be seated. The dimensions of the room in which the table is located also determines size. Does this Spark an idea?
Round Tables
Round tables typically are smaller and seat fewer people than oval or oblong tables. A table that is 36 to 44 inches in diameter seats four to six, one that is 45 to 54 inches will seat four to six and a 60- to 70-inch-diameter table should seats six to eight individuals. Square tables fall into this category, ranging from 24 to 40 inches per side and seating four.
Oval and Oblong
Oval tables have rounded edges, while oblong tables are rectangular in shape and have corners. Tables of both shapes with the same dimensions will seat the same number of people. These range from 28 by 46 inches, seating four to six, to 42 iby 120 inches, accommodating 12 to 16.
Place Settings
Ideally, each individual should have at least 24 inches of room for a place setting. Formal events allow for 29 inches, while specialized or ethnic dinners need larger settings to accommodate utensils.
