Tripod Stabilization
When working on slick surfaces like finished concrete or indoors, you'll want to buy a tripod stabilizer. Tripod stabilizers come in several styles. One style of tripod comes with a strap that is routed through a loop or bracket on each leg which is tightened and this keeps the three tripod legs from spreading apart. Another style of tripod stabilizer is one the user places on the ground or floor and its a triangle that has three holes in each vertex, where the tripod feet tips rest in, which keeps the tripod legs from spreading.

The Tripod Feet
The feet probably suffer the most wear and tear of all the tripod components. Some tripods offer replaceable feet. This way if anything does happen to the feet you can just replace them with out having to replace the whole tripod. There are also optional feet covers available for indoor use. When steel tips become more of a hazard than a help. The covers provide a good slip resistant base for the tripod. And, as most land surveyors know, the feet need to be strong for pushing into the ground to get a stable set-up.
