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.

After the planes hit, I thought: Well, that looks repairable. The twin towers stood up to the impacts well. The fires were smokey, but didn't look hot at all. I thought it was fishy when the towers collapsed, but eventually put it in the past. Until I saw one or two 9/11 videos and absorbed some facts, like the 9.5 seconds it took for the buildings to collapse (free fall speed); the molten steel in all 3 basements 6 weeks after 9/11; the way the lobbies were blown apart and the injuries people had from HIGH VELOCITY explosions. Jet fuel might make a low velocity explosion, but it wouldn't blow people's skin off. Building 7's steel beams were incredibly massive because of the electrical substation below it. They wouldn't allow it to collapse the way it did, without high explosives. We would've seen some unsymmetrical partial collapse somewhere among those 3 buildings, not 3 perfect collapses into their own footprints.

For our representatives to deliberately ignore or discredit the overwhelming evidence of a planned demolition of the WTC buildings is a travesty of justice and treasonous to not only the American people, but the entire world. For the media, government, or society itself to ridicule or penalize people who stand behind the righteous cause of seeking truth in what happened during this cataclysmic event, is representative of just how deeply the propaganda machine has entrenched itself into our collective consciousness. 9/11 is not just about the loss of 3,000 Americans. It was the event that led us and the world to a never ending series of wars in which untold millions of innocent lives were lost. It was the event that transformed the military/security/information industrial complex into the unstoppable all-encompassing monster that it is today. It is ultimately what enabled governments to steadfastly strip their citizens of their fundamental rights as citizens of a 'free' nation. Therefore, it is imperative that this event is investigated more thoroughly and independently than any other event in our modern history, and hopefully, the truth is uncovered for all to see so that guilty parties can hopefully be identified and brought to justice, regardless of whom they may be.

There is only one way that Building 7 could have collapsed the way it did. That's if all the structural joints failed at the same time. Controlled demolition explains this perfectly. There is lots of other evidence that supports this theory as well. The most convincing is just the time study of the collapse of Building 7.

I have co-published several peer-reviewed articles on the topic of indoor air quality and passive filtration of indoor air pollutants (see google scholar).
It is clear to me now that there were tell-tale signs that the three WTC towers were taken down by controlled demolitions: squibs; explosions heard by eyewitnesses in the basement, lobby, and on the street; the speed at which the towers fell that does not agree with laws of physics if they were collapsing under gravity alone; the lateral projectiles as the towers fell; projectiles seen exploding in mid-air; thermite discovered in the dust; molten steel pouring from one of the towers just below the impact of the plane, and the molten steel in the rubble that was seen by eyewitnesses at the site in the days after the collapse. We need to know the truth.

BE in Mechanical Engineering from Victoria University, Melbourne Australia. I studied building engineering for two years and mechanical engineering for four. I have 16 years of mechanical engineering experience dealing with material sciences, thermodynamics, and mechanical stresses.
In my opinion, the probability of bringing three buildings down with two planes hitting in random locations is nil. The energy of impact combined with the potential heat energy stored in the fuel was mostly dissipated in the first few minutes leaving only the potential energy of the structure itself. The result should have been a gaping hole in two buildings and burnt out floors in another. What we saw instead defies the laws of physics and common sense.

If the official explanation is true, it follows that all the events that took place in 9/11 defy engineering and physics principles, but most importantly, they defy logic. By having the most basic experience with mechanical phenomena you can clearly see that the top of the South Tower should have continued falling off to the side of the building when it tilted immediately after the collapse started. The only reasonable explanation is that it encountered no resistance as it fell or that it was pulverized in mid air.

Too many things do not add up and how did people have cell service on the plane. I know my phone signal gose away not,long after take off.How dose a plane that cant handle a bird strike destroy buildings that are meant to hold up,that much weight? Why did building 7 fall? How come we saw no plane parts at the Pentagon? Too many. Obvious holes in the story.

In my opinion, knowing the temperature of burning jet fuel and knowing how many columns existed in the Buildings there is NO way that those buildings can free fall down without demolition. Plus, having worked on B757's, it was absolutely sure that it was NOT a B757 that flew into the Pentagon

Bazants' ludicrous 'pile-driver' theory is an abomination to the immutable laws of physics. The idea that the upper 'block' can 'one-way crush-down' the lower, stronger undamaged structure below at a constant acceleration of 2/3g is beyond ludicrous.

I am an Architectural and Structural Design Drafts-person.

I do a lot of work with regards to Fault Diagnosis and Remedy however I am not a licensed Engineer. I am experienced in Structural Steel and Concrete detail but limited to 3 stories maximum, no high-rise work.
I read the HERA report (New Zealand) shortly after the September 11 event, and questioned the validity of the collapse so began to delve into the available information at the time. I have always felt that the attacks were a Smoke Screen for a controlled demolition that took place in broad daylight. There are too many questions that if answered honestly, would open so many cans of worms, going so far back into history, that the current and future law makers and keepers would be able to handle. The engineering of the towers does not lend itself to a free-fall type collapse without help - not just from two planes.

The official version of the event 9/11 is impossible. It is a conspiracy in itself. No matter how intense kerosene may burn steel buildings of that kind do not implode and fall in free fall speed down in it's footprints. They do not fall at all! And concerning building 7 there is no rime or reason in why it imploded end fell in it's own footprints. There is now convincing evidence that all the buildings where taken down with high tech nanoexplosives that caused the steel joints to be blown away like hot butter. It was a very Controlled Demolition. There has to be a new investigation in all these matters and the investigation has to be headed and controlled by an neutral international body of the highest status similar to the group of concerned scientists.

No film footage or sourced, non-biased evidence appears to show any any irregularity in the way these buildings were destroyed, when put into context with controlled demolitions of a similar nature. While no steel-framed building of this magnitude has ever been demolished in a controlled manner, several buildings of this scale, built with similar fire protection systems have survived much greater blazes at much greater temperatures with no collapse occurring. Building 7 in particular displays clear attributes of a controlled demolition, and was barely affected by the initial impacts subjected to buildings 1 & 2.

I do have a huge concern about how the World Trade Center high rises collapsed on 9/11/01. I also believe that the American people were decieved by the reports in the 9/11 Commission report. Obviously we are not being told the truth, and I hope that soon the American people will finally be told what really happened with those buildings that day.

My work experience is mostly in transportation however I am also an architectural technologist and i took a structural dynamics course in my final year of university among other courses in steel design, concrete design, as well as structures and dynamics courses. I did fairly well and made 100% on the final exam in structural dynamics. We examined the harmonic frequencies of structures and the aspects of structural design from various loads (live loads, dead loads etc..).
Watched the twin towers collapse on TV when it was happening and said to others later that day that it fell too fast and too neatly from just a fire or a pancake collapse. That it looked like a demolition, it went down too fast. The cross bracing of steel and the central structural core prevents this type of thing from happening. I am happy someone has finally started asking questions. I have had questions from day one, minute one. The other thing that seemed odd is how quickly the theories came out and were never questioned by anyone. As every engineer knows, you get 10 different engineers you'll get 10 different opinions. But in the case of 9/11 this was all tied up in a neat little bow right away, with everyone spewing the same mantra and the same theory. To get engineers to agree with one another that quickly is a miracle in itself. I know, I work with them everyday.

I have been following the on going public investigation of 9/11 since I saw the towers fall in my 8th grade social studies class. It took 4 years for me to get accepted into cal poly SLO for architectural engineering and by the time I did most general public conversations regarding 9/11 had dwindled. My professors think anything other than the predetermined (by a random civilian on national television moments after the collapse) structural failure is simply impossible. I think it goes to show how fearful everyone is about looking at the truth and dealing with the implications that follow.
The most simple analysis of the collapse involves a cartoon diagram which holds the top 1/4's the building on a crane. In one case the top of the building is dropped through the air. In which case it hits the floor in approximately 10 seconds. The second case has the impossible task of showing hoe the top of the building has to travel through the remaining 3/4 of the building while doing so in approximately the same time period. The physics of the case seem truly elementary.

I learned Steel building from an old Iron Worker who built buildings just like W.T.C. 7. It carried over into my own wood designs for bolt together trusses. We have load tested our trusses at 4&5 feet of wet snow and never had a failure. Now that's what we call the right stuff. You build it right and it will not fail. I know what it takes to collapse a structure of this design and preset explosives is the only thing that could bring these buildings down. Last i checked steel does not burn in molten puddles for over a month. Nano thermite, military grade mind you, does melt steel. This was an inside job. They cut out the guts and the ribs folded inward. It's not rocket science and i know a bit about that too. Follow the money.
The horror I felt watching that day is something i never want to feel again. Then the disbelief as the buildings collapsed into their own footprint. Reports of explosions in the lower sections of the structures. Parts of the buildings weighing tons being vertically ejected and embedding themselves into adjacent buildings hundreds of feet away. Bright yellow lava pouring out of the still standing structure. And, my God, the people trying to escape the smoke and heat, making the choice of burning to death or just letting go. It rips at the heart. It took months to set this up and a cast of cold blooded individuals to pull it off. But W.T.C. #7 is where they made their mistake. How long would it take to wire a building of #7's size to implode in on itself. Hmmm. Any guesses? I can bet it wasn't five hours. I've wired explosives as lead man in open pit mines. You set charges three football fields long by two wide at ten foot spacing. It takes four 2 person teams eight to ten hours to complete this task on flat open ground. This is the greatest smoke and mirrors scam ever pulled. To understand 9-11 one must go back at least six months prior to the date. Then, and only then, can the placing of the explosives be laid bare for all to see as work crews used forklift after forklift to cart the wire primers. Nano thermite painted on with chem-techs to ignite it took months to install. They ripped out those buildings guts and the heart of America as well. Let the truth see the light of day and evil will scurry for the darkness of hell. 9-11 truth now.
