That is absolutely clear to me. And so I provided an example solution with regard on that. As
gmedina already assumed your problem description seems incomplete. Problems should be described by presenting a
minimal example as requested earlier [1,2]. Unfortunately you denied us such an example although it has been requested. And you still do (which is quite impolite). Your problem could already have been solved.

I can't see this advice within this thread here. And you should not remove relevant parts from the code of your example that probably cause the problem. There are several other column types possible in the
tabular environment for the case that line breaks are necessary. You could choose one for the last column. The features of this environment are extended by the
array package. Furthermore you could decrease the
font size with appropriate switches.
Below you find a solution with the look of your original code that works like desired. If there shall be other modification, please give a precise description by means of a minimal example. Otherwise this discussion will come to nothing.

In case the problem still isn't solved, we expect a complete example with precise descriptions that shows your document setup while reduced to minimal content within your next post. Finally the suggestion to use abbreviations for »Experimental« and »Calculated« if possible.
