Hi, We are building some decking and want to know how much space we need to comfortably fit a round 6 seater table and largish chairs

If you set up the table with the chairs pulled out - as for seated guests - then you could mark a boundary round with string/ fine sand to give you a chance to measure the space you will need.

Do you mean a square 8 feet across, Bamboo?

Good point, Tugbrethil, I've not expressed what I mean correctly at all - I mean an area 8 x 8 x 8 x 8 square, or 8 feet long, 8 feet wide.

Previous question
A minimum of 8 square FEET, and preferably 10 or 12 to allow for 6 people pushing their chairs back away from the table to get up and down, not sure how that works out in square metres.
