A springy floor in a dining area suggests the contractor saved
money by installing the minimum number of floor joists required
by the building code.


I expect the contractor installed precisely the number, type and spacing
of joists specified by the architect/engineer...

I expect it is/was a dance floor and is performing exactly to
specification.


it is not a dance floor. it is a restaurant and sometimes bingo parlor


It sounds as if that area of the building was built to the same
designs
as the casino floor area -- i.e. it is built on that raised floor
system
that I described in my previous postings...

Especially given your better description of the "feeling"...
