Springs under buildings, often referred to as base isolators, are used to enhance a structure's seismic performance by allowing it to move independently from ground motion during an earthquake. These systems absorb and dissipate energy, reducing the amount of force transmitted to the building. Additionally, they can help mitigate vibrations from other sources, such as heavy traffic or machinery, improving overall stability and occupant comfort.

The armies treated the wounded wherever and however they could under the circumstances.
