A shim is a spacer that holds things apart. Many commercially available shims are designed for a specific purpose, such as for holding a starter motor the necessary distance from the engine block, and as such those shims are produced in varying thicknesses.
As one might guess, a "shim plate" would be a flat spacer that covers a little larger area.
Shim plates may not be required if leveling bolts are present, as the bolts can be adjusted to ensure the base plate is properly leveled. However, shim plates can be used in conjunction with leveling bolts to provide additional support and stability, especially in situations where precise leveling is crucial. Ultimately, the decision to use shim plates below the base plate will depend on the specific requirements of the metal building and the level of precision needed.
