Total deflection of Live plus Dead load with self weight taken as zero
deflection= L/240

instantaneous deflection life load only = L/360

Hi,
I am working on engineering for a custom home where the billard table (pool table in bar speak) is on the second floor.
What floor deflection should be allowed to make sure the game can't be influenced by a bouncing floor???
any experience or reference to look at ? 
 
Thanks,
