Corrective opposing vibrations reduce Earthquake damage. Algorithm for controlling reactions of buildings and other structures to Earthquake initiates counterpulses when incoming shock pulses exceed threshold level. By using "go/no-go" criterion rather than continuously adjusting response to every input excitation no matter how small, control system needs less computation effort than comparable closed-loop systems.
