<tblLayout> (Table Layout)

This element specifies the algorithm which shall be used to lay out the contents of this table within the document. When a table is displayed in a document, it can either be displayed using a fixed width or autofit layout algorithm (each discussed in the simple type referenced by the @val attribute).

If this element is omitted, then the value of this element shall be assumed to be auto.

example: 
<w:tblPr>
  <w:tblLayout w:type="fixed"/>
</w:tblPr>

The <tblLayout> element specifies that the table shall use the fixed layout algorithm. ]
