The AE911Truth Petition
To the Members of the House of Representatives and of the Senate of the United States of America,
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 – specifically the collapses of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story and therefore the 9/11 investigation must be re-opened and must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

I have some experience on building and maintaining a steel structure because I worked on the viaduct of Millau for over three years. After viewing documentaries on internet and comparing the official version with facts, I started having doubts. I don't know much about material behaviors due to explosions and fire, but it is no big deal to understand what is true. A building with steel frame does not fall down because of fire. A building does not fall straight unless it is due to demolition, and does not fall at that speed. And where are the pancakes. How metal melted, and concrete turned to dust? And here are only few doubts I have on how the buildings fell. So many questions, so few true official answers.

Throughout my years in the working world, structured problem solving has always been foremost in approaching any issue. These same principles are the ones used in the analysis of the three World Trade Center collapses.
From the moment the towers collapsed, something didn't seem right when there was nothing left but a pile of rubble and a lot of dust. After becoming involved and researching numerous websites, I added my name to the petition because the evidence is overwhelming. Building #7 is the smoking gun.

Buildings with fires on one side don't fall completely in on themselves. The twin towers would have fallen to the side like when you chop a tree near the top. You yell, Timber!. The tree does not fall down through itself. As for the building THAT WASN'T EVEN HIT BY A PLANE: WTC7 - there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY a wide-scraper with small fires on one side could CRIMP IN THE MIDDLE & then freefall into it's own footprint with almost perfect symmetry. The folks who carried this out obviously didn't care about being caught when they did it. I bet they got worry now! I sense their day of judgment is approaching. Keep it rockin' AE!

Later I heard the official story and thought it was a mistake. After awhile I realized that the story wasn't going away and I knew that there were others that knew what I knew. That is when I joined AE911Truth. There are many physical laws that the official story does not take into account but the most important are the laws of the conservation of mass and the conservation of energy.

My sympathy to family members of those murdered on 9/11 and since. It was evident from the time of the collapse that something other than the planes and fire were the cause of destruction. The media reports and rush to war that followed began to highlight the larger plan underway. The plan is hitting its climax now, and we must take action if we are to regain any level of law, order, liberty or free market.

From the very beginning, even while watching live on tv the whole event, I was absolutely certain that it was a false flag, being broadcasted in real time. A mixture of discernment and intuition made me not believe in ANY of what was being told at the moment, and afterwards, with this perception, many inconsistencies became more and more apparent, and all the changes and limitations imposed worldwide on our freedoms, from that day onwards, only confirmed my views.

Not enough investigation by far. Lack of testing, disinformation, a very suspicious Pentagon attack with a lack of cameras, the size of the impact, there being no bodies, passenger luggage or airline debris. The manner in which Twin Towers fell. Again, no airline passengers and luggage, and mismatched aircraft debris. Pennsylvania crash, similar thing.

The appearance of jet wings capable of shearing a steel exoskeleton of a high rise would be next to impossible to horizontally slice the buildings floors in two like a cake without strategically placed additional building demolition explosives onboard the jet and/or both the building structure. This happening twice in two separate buildings simultaneously is cause for speculation. There is a need for additional investigations and laboratory testing.

I was suspicious the moment I watched the images of the buildings fall. Asymmetrical damage does not cause a near symmetric, free fall collapse. As a student I watched the towers go up. They were the poster child for asbestos fireproofing. 3 hours on columns. The buildings fell prior to two hours of plane impact. Jet fuel fires cannot soften or melt steel. Office fires on upper floors cannot damage lower levels. Black smoke (oxygen starved) says office fires never got close to steel softening temperature. The official story narrative crude, idiotic, and laughable.

It seems clear to me that Tower 7 fell for no conceivable reason and that the logic given for the collapse of the Twin Tower doesn't square with my understanding of the fire performance of structural steel.

I believe the people have the right to know the truth. As a building designer, I want to know for certain that that building will not fail and cost people their lives. Being lied to about how buildings fail causes all kinds of problems. We want the truth. The architect who designed the WTC deserves to be justified by assuring us that the WTC was a sound and safe building. The only thing that could destroy that building would have been bombs, because they destroy everything, don't they? We should also ask who benefitted from this financially, politically, and the like. We need to prosecute those who are responsible so they don't do this again.

Fear is a billion-dollar industry that creates weapons, conflicts and war. Peace is a billion-dollar industry, probably at least 100,000 times bigger than fear! One day, the majority of the US administration will hopefully understand that true power comes with peace and will respect those that ask for a proper investigation.
Building 7 is the main reason for me. This building did not have to come down, because it was not hit. In my opinion it came down because of human interference (demolition). Example: In Scandinavia we have had 2 large ship disasters. The first was Scandinavian Star in 1990, where a fire at sea killed almost 160 people (today we know it was because of insurance fraud). The second was Estonia in 1994. The public was told the front of the ship was lost in bad sea. 852 people died. Today divers have discovered a 4m long horizontal gap on the side of the ship wreck, showing that the ship was hit underwater or something. A new investigation is on its way, also it will be shown in national TV, but the reason for this to happen, is because relatives to the 852 people have raised the money for this. Maybe this could be a way concerning 9/11 and Building 7? The truth will always come forward, no matter what.

Having worked in Las Vegas and done extensive research on building demolition, it was obvious to me from the moment I first saw videos of the WTC towers falling that the collapses were caused by controlled demolition, which was why I was so shocked by the obviously false conclusions of the NIST report. The mechanics of materials and the simple laws of physics dictate that the towers MUST have collapsed by simultaneous failure of the entire structural grid, which can ONLY occur in a planned demolition. The people must know the truth.

I worked for numerous years in construction, manufacturing, and architecture before attending Cal Poly school of Architecture and studying at the WAAC. I graduated with awards from the department before working for the State of California and then taking a position as job captain and then project manager at a small architecture firm. I volunteered many hours in nonprofits and was appointed as a city planning commissioner. That ended early when I was forced to resign for pointing out problems with major developments. I was able to find work at a global software company and had to relocate to the east coast to continue my career. I now train architects and help them solve design problems.
The collapse of the WTC towers including building 7 are incongruent with the official narrative. The analysis by the University of Fairbanks Alaska released in September 2019 has determined that the NIST report is erroneous.

NIST analysis? No. - - The towers are the 'smoking gun'. Building 7 was obvious. Melted bedrock & Steel, 220 Acres of Building 90% DUSTIFIED, thyroid cancers, forensic evidence regarding materials, detailed witness accounts and most compelling are critical reviews by experienced flight crew professionals. Office fires? Lack fuel/heat, but even IF, these collapsed long before their fire ratings so it's logically not possible. If structural damage contributed, then a partial non symmetrical event would manifest.

I've studied modern architecture and skyscraper design and passed several structural engineering courses in college; the official 9/11 story seems unlikely. I've also studied studied politics and history, and as a member of the US military I have serious reservations regarding the official reported causes of 9/11. Even if the attacks were totally unexpected, and there was no civil defense plan for such events (like NY airbases or ground-to-air missiles), and there were no CIA or other black operations involved, we should still ask some questions: How did the towers collapse straight down as though planned to minimize damage to surrounding buildings? Why was the debris removed so expediently? Was it embarrassment? Quick cleanup to save our suffering the images of burning towers? Was it too expensive to renovate the buildings later? To avoid controversy and investigation they were removed from view asap, but by whom? FEMA? The building owners? There are many unanswered questions, from the Bush - bin Laden connection, to the FEMA - tower connection. Even if one structure failed from the attacks, the chances that all three buildings would pancake seems like nonsense. Perhaps one could pancake for multiple stories, but at a point the consistent fall would become lopsided due to the probability of resistance from numerous structural members, and develop a natural tilt. This tilt would produce torque, or rotational movement about points, and the laws of physics would tend to bring the forces down in faster ways to the sides, rather than through the entire strength of the remaining body of the building firmly rooted by numerous supports, including a central concrete elevator and stair core, and on a solid foundation.

From day one, I have believed that the 9/11 events were the work of the American government and not of terrorists from anywhere outside the USA. It would be impossible for someone outside the US to coordinate the takeoffs and control of so many flights from different places, and to make the attacks coincide almost simultaneously.

Steel frame towers cannot naturally behave as exhibited at WTC. They can't fall at near free-fall,; they can't right themselves after listing more than 5 degrees (why is there no talk about the conservation of momentum?). the core columns cannot shear as evidenced in the rubble pile. In the entire history of human building, only three steel-frame buildings fell into their own footprints after relatively minor fires. They all fell in the same complex, on the same day. What are the odds?

I studied architecture in Valencia, Spain, at the Etsav and finished in 2002. Since then, I've been working at calculations for steel and concrete structures.
It doesn't seem possible that a fire, now matter how hot it gets, can cause a collapse at free fall speed. The official story does not explain how all the floors below the impact could offer no resistance at all in the collapse. The mass below was moved away somehow.

Project Architect-Director for many high and low rise steel structures including the 34 story 1.7 Million SF Headquarters Building for Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Francisco, 44 story Citicorp Building San Francisco, 44 story 575 Market street Building, San Francisco (A Standard Oil Company Headquarters Building), St. Mary's Hospital and Medical Center, San Francisco, and the 1 Million SF Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX.
Following the collapse, on September 12, 2001, I had a breakfast meeting with Tom McCasslin, then VP West Coast for Tishman Construction, and formerly the Project Engineer for Building 7. This meeting was to have included the LA Building Dept Chief and the LA Fire Marshall, who for obvious reasons, could not attend. Neither Tom or I, after having watched the news stories of the event several times could understand how a fire would have caused that type of total and complete collapse. Now we know!

I am concerned that such a tragic event was not thoroughly investigated by various different groups of forensic engineers and that all of the evidence was not available to everyone. I question the haste of the clean-up and site clearing without understanding what happened and why.

The official explanations simply do not logically follow from the substantiated empirical data, nor from increasingly credible data still coming to light. A full, truthful accounting is absolutely critical if trust in our government is to be restored, and the victims are to be vindicated.

I'm 59 years old, living and working in Vietnam from January 2005 I'm register at Reopen911 french website already
First the WTC7 awake me. And then, the North and South towers, . and the Pentagon after. The more I learned on 911, the less it fit. A building could collapse about fire, but straight down in its footprint, and at free fall speed. Nope! It's unrealistic.

There is too much information missing and misinformation included to establish cause of 911collapses and the implications for other/future high rise buildings.
