ORIGINAL: HaveRopeWillBind Thornhappy, Thanks for that link, I hadn't seen that report before. Learned a few new details about the structures of the towers from it. Too bad they didn't publish a similar report on the Pentagon. I've never seen any detailed analysis of the structural failure there, but then considering it's the Pentagon there likely won't be anything released publicly until the Joint Cheifs decide to build a new headquarters. Oh Dont stop there! Thats just the gnat on the tip of the iceburg of this party!!!!! 9/11 Commission Report http://www.9-11commission.gov/report/911Report.pdf NIST 9/11 Analysis http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-1.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-2Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-3Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-4Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-5Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-6Draft.pdf http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/NISTNCSTAR1-7.pdf ASCE ASCE Report quote:
W. Gene Corley, Ph.D, Senior Vice President of Construction Technologies Laboratory in Skokie, IL, served as principal investigator. Corley was also the principal investigator for FEMA's study of the 1995 Murrah Federal Office Building attack. The BPAT's investigation was funded by $600,000 from FEMA and $500,000 in ASCE in-kind contributions. 1 By december of 2001 $100,000 had been spent on the investigation. http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/official/fema.html (Of course we have known for some time that Murrah was blown from the inside out by military ordinance not mcveighs truck bomb.) BUILDINGS No Code Changes Recommended In World Trade Center Report (4/15/02) By Nadine M. Post in Denver Calling for more active involvement of the structural engineer in fire protection design and "extensive" additional study of the performance of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, an American Society of Civil Engineers' building performance study will not recommend changes to building codes at this time. Having decided that the plane attacks and subsequent fires doomed the twin towers to destruction, the engineering community is shifting attention to clearing up mysteries swirling around the behavior of nearby buildings damaged by the collapses, to extend lessons learned to general building practice. No Code Changes Recommended In World Trade Center Report Bare steel in fire places and wood stoves "can heat quickly when exposed to a fire of even moderate intensity," but we don't often see fireplace gratings or wood stoves collapsing. http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/nist/docs/centurywood.jpg Why dont your unprotected (thin iron) kettles collapse from structural failure on a stoiciometric gas stove fire? Why doesnt the unprotected steel stoves that we heat our homes with collapse and melt? And what changes did NIST suggest? http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=10&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.iccsafe.org%2Fcs%2Fcc%2Fctc%2FWTC%2FInterim_Report_No-3_3-15-07.pdf&ei=oIokR4ybKYauiAHUsYTsDQ&usg=AFQjCNGtMjDzhL8T_QNduRI-r0q819d-mw&sig2=LdfDFsdIBRb3PvxGasewAg Building a Better Mirage NIST's 3-Year $20,000,000 Cover-Up of the Crime of the Century a critique of the Final Report of the National Construction Safety Team on the Collapses of the World Trade Center Towers by the Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster revision history 8/01/05: 911Research publishes Version 0.9 of this critique 8/21/05: 911Research publishes Version 0.98 of this critique 12/08/05: 911Research publishes Version 1.0 of this critique NOTE: Pre-1.0 versions of this essay critiqued the Draft of NIST's Final Report. Version 1 includes the new section NIST's Vacuous Response to its Critics. NIST's investigation is often cited as proving the official theory that the plane crashes and fires caused the collapses. Yet the Report does not explain why or how the buildings totally collapsed, despite the lack of a single historical precedent for a steel-framed skyscraper totally collapsing for any reason other than controlled demolition. And, in contrast to the Report's voluminous detail about the plane crashes, fires, and loss of life, it makes no attempt to characterize or explain the demolition-like features of the collapses -- such as their explosiveness, pulverization, verticality and nearly free-fall rapidity -- except for two sentences in a half-page section added to the Final Report to address criticisms of the Draft. NIST simply avoids these troublesome issues by placing them outside the scope of its investigation, claiming that "global collapse" was "inevitable" after the "initiation of collapse." As noted below, the Report asserts that infernos raged in the Towers' cores with quantitative detail that could easily mislead the reader into thinking that there is evidence to support it. Elsewhere the Report admits that there is no visual evidence for fires close to or in the cores. Fires deeper than a few meters inside the building could not be seen because of the smoke obscuration and the steep viewing angle of nearly all the photographs. (p 127/177) Cinematic Emphasis While providing extreme detail in certain areas, the Report makes key assertions without any detail or supporting evidence, often couched in language seemingly calculated for emotive effect. For example, the Report suggests that there was something very unusual about the construction of the Towers' trussed floor diaphragms. http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/nist/ Leading Scientists Accuse Bush of Politicizing Science Tuesday, February 24th, 2004 http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=04/02/24/1554238 A group of scientists, including 20 Nobel laureates, last week signed a petition condemning the White House for deliberately and systematically distorting scientific fact in the service of policy goals on the environment, health, biomedical research and nuclear weaponry at home and abroad.
