base plate
Bottom support piece
A base plate is a flat, typically metal plate that serves as the foundation or mounting surface for a structure, machine, or component.
In construction, it anchors columns to foundations; in machinery, it provides a stable platform for equipment.
The term appears across trades—from surveying instruments to film equipment to military mortars—wherever something needs a solid, level footing.
