We have placed on a table two columns, one column screwed on the table, and the other simply put on the table. If one shifts on the table, the unbolted column will be overthrown. The bolted column withstands the lateral loading. Why not apply exactly the same in every column of a building to withstand more lateral earthquake loading? That is , simply screwing it to the ground.
