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 studied Dr. Steven Jones work and have come to the conclusion that the estimated Dr. Jones research is of such academic quality that it cannot be ignored, and that it therefore should be addressed in scientific terms. It has clearly NOT been addressed scientifically so far. Why did WTC Tower No. 7 come down is maybe the biggest of the (engineering related) mysteries of that dreadful September 11, 2001. This alone should make it obvious that this tragedy needs to be further investigated, and that the public be presented proper proof for the events, something which I believe is not the case so far.

Once I turned my attention to Building 7 and how it was certainly brought down, I searched for more evidence and clues. The amount of information available (but being suppressed by the Major Media) is staggering; evidence which proves the attacks on Sept. 11th were a greater conspiracy than the public was being told. It's sickening (literally) to become aware (as I have) that this False Flag operation was conducted by groups within our own government. When one realizes how the public has been manipulated in this manner as a pretext to enter the Middle East region, the filters on our perceptions become clearer. The Truth is available to everyone if we are willing to look at it and see it for what it really is. We were misled from the very beginning...

They could not have done a demo job that well on the spur of the moment on 9/11. I figure it would take a week of planning and planting explosives, not hours in the midst of chaos. I was at Michigan Tech about to graduate when this happened and it sent shock waves through my career and life. Our college in spring 2001 had the best turnout of companies hiring ever, and fall 2001 after 911 we had the worst ever turnout. I've had to work my way up through my current company by working on the floor, to where I now have a CAD/cnc programming job."

It hugely concerns me that mass genocide can be committed by a government on it's own country; looks very much like a detonation to me, amazing how the buildings fall straight down, and you can even see charges blowing out the sides as the collapse occurs. Buildings designed to withstand the impact, and yet they fall? separate testimonies please!!! it must be hard to admit to the truth of killing that many people, but then i guess cover ups are a common political move.

Have been designing building structures for 35 years both in the UK and the Middle East with local UK based consultancies and with a large project management company in Saudi Arabia. For the last 14 years, I have owned and run a structural design consultancy in Edinburgh, UK specializing in steel framed, masonry and timber building designs.
From the outset, watching the collapses on television, it was clear there were very serious questions to be asked about how three robust steel framed buildings collapsed into their own footprints, one of which had not been struck by an aircraft and had been subject to a relatively minor fire. Given the evidence from multiple witnesses regarding explosions in the buildings before and after the planes struck, the stand-down of the US air force, the admission by the owner of the buildings of the decision to demolish Building 7, the immediate removal of structural evidence, the high temperature fires in the basements, the evidence for explosive residues in dust and obvious unwillingness of US authorities to offer a reasoned and full engineering explanation for the collapses. Since 911, the two relevant UK engineering institutions have failed to provide an analysis or to offer advice to structural engineers on progressive collapse and fire protection in steel framed buildings in complete contrast to previous serious building collapses. In my opinion, the official report on the collapses, or any other that I am aware of was entirely inadequate and should be reopened to fully investigate the reasons for these building failures and offer advice and guidance on limiting risk in future, and existing, structures.

Too many things don't add up. While the hijacking of the aircraft was an excellent diversion and 'excuse' for what happened, the actual explosions and their results are not consistent with what could have happened with the aircraft alone. There is evidence of structural damage that preceeded the aircraft impacts (never explained) and the impact at the Pentagon is not consistent with the aircraft that struck there.

Owner of WTC admits publicly that they pulled building 7. Pulled means controlled detonation. Controlled detonations take months sometimes years of planning and permitting before they actually drop a building. Building 7 came down the same day just hours after the collapse of 1 and 2. This would only have been possible if the building was already rigged to go. Its doubtful that even the most skilled demo team could have or would have rigged a building that fast and brought it down. Correct me if I am wrong but structural steel needs temperatures of more than 2000 F to weaken or melt. JP8 or common aircraft fuel burns at around 900 F No building in history, even after hours of intense burning, has ever fell down because of the heat. The WTC towers were built to withstand just such an impact from a large passenger airliner, I recall that they were built to withstand a direct hit from an even larger plane than the ones that hit them on 9/11.

On or about 9/12/01 I saw an article by the leading expert on demolitions with contracts with government, who unequivocally stated in his expert opinion the collapse of the twin towers was a controlled implosion. Within hours that newspaper page was removed from the web - and replaced by an article that stated essentially the opposite. No mention of a correction - just an Orwellian replacement of the record. Since then I have been very interested in finding out what really happened.

As I watched the second plane hit the tower, I was astounded that it had not been shot down. When the Pentagon was hit, I knew that that could not happen. As I watched the Towers fall, I knew intuitively that what I was seeing was an impossibility. When I heard the official story I knew it was a lie. I have been searching for 9-11 Truth since 9-11. I would like a comprehensive explanation of William Rodriquez experience in the sub-basements of WTC1&2. The significance of the explosions (cutter charges) and what was the purpose of cutting the main beams (tension release/ loss of anchorage?). Publish the seismic evidence supporting his claim that the explosions in the sub-basements occurred approx. 9 & 14 seconds before the Towers were hit (source; Columbia University?). Explain how that ties in with Steven Jones thoughts on the molten metal pools in the basements and the Thermite/Thermate. A thoughtful analysis of a section of the Naudet Brother's film 9/11; Observation: The Fire Chief and the filmmaker walked into the lobby (first people in) and there were people horribly burned in the exit of the lobby. The marble had been literally blown off the walls. Most of the glass in the lobby was shattered. A fireman says . . . it looked like a plane had hit the lobby. They make the statement that they (the filmmakers)were later told that this damage was caused by fuel traveling down the elevator shafts and exploding into the lobby. Then they show people coming out of the elevators, and they have zero awareness that something is wrong. Fact:The towers were built as 3 separate buildings that were sealed off from each other to prevent just that type of fireball from traveling down the service/elevator shafts. The type of load that the planes put into the buildings would not have knocked the marble off the walls. An air burst of jet fuel into the lobby would not have the energy sufficient to blow the marble off the walls. But, high energy explosives that were

I've built truss, and support systems, at huge scales and I fail to see how the official 9/11 theory could possibly add up. I reserve any accusations, or judgments, but the Official story should bear the burden of proof. If for no other reason than to make aware to the Architects and Engineers around the world what could cause such a dramatic failure and how it can be prevented. Or if the buildings were properly, and/or overly, designed to handle the forces at play during 9/11, this issue is important on to many levels to be ignored, and deserves a complete and independent inspection that can account for the holes in the official story.

From my HVAC background, I know that hydrocarbon fires don't melt steel without a forced air supply. From my foundry and welding experience with many different metals, I know how long it takes to heat metals (steel) and I know about thermal conduction... it would take many hours of sustained, concentrated heat, to achieve the loss of strength alleged. But even if the steel was hot enough to remove 50% of it's strength, it still would have supported at least 10x it's design loading, since the engineers' design specified a 20x over-rating factor!!

I am currently an engineering student acquiring my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering Technology in December of 2008, this year. My focuses are in thermodynamics, heat transfer, solidworks, and advanced dynamics. With Solidworks advanced flow analyses can be applied to the several modes of heat transfer for further analysis of structures. Also, metallurgy is another focus point along with structures. A vast knowledge of thermodynamics gives experience in combustion reactions and stoichiometry. While my soon upcoming degree is in mechanical, I am also versed in water chemistry as well, which, while it deviates from applicable sciences, it allows for further experience and knowledge of basic and advanced chemical reactions in a laboratory setting. Familiarity with error propagation and other statistical analyses in experimentation are also well within my range of expertise.
The investigations into the collapses are loaded with inconsistencies, missing data, and a lack of experimental data. There is not enough evidence in the official reports to have gained conclusive results or statements. While the evidence shown on this website is rather well presented, it does lack its own experiments performed on various types of structural steel using different modes of heat transfer. Empirical, video, and graphical representations of how heat (convective and radiative) travels through structural steel is needed to refute the most recent investigation's claims. Without this type of evidence to solidify theory, the NIST report will stand. Also, a fully-detailed, graphical representation of WTC-7's frame is needed to perform flow analysis on and simulate its collapse. The NIST investigation does not actually provide heat flow data for the entire-affected structure of the building; they in fact only show its collapse, which a video actually does a better job of showing. I may be mistaken, but was NIST not hired to complete the first investigation into 9/11? Why did they receive a second payment of 20 million dollars to perform a second, alternate investigation into just WTC-7. They should not have been paid a second time for an investigation they should have performed the first time around.

I am a student that is currently pursuing my diploma in welding technology that has an understanding in the reactivities of metals and alloys. I am constantly studying the anatomy of the collapses of the WTC buildings and Pentagon.
If the floors had collapsed on top of themselves (in a pancake fashion) there would have still been those 47 center steel columns rising into the air. It is scientifically impossible for a fuel that is kerosene based to significantly weaken, melt, let alone vaporize steel. The buildings were obviously detonated. All videos showing the collapse show detonations exploding out of the side of the buildings. NIST and FEMA have VERY questionable theories and bogus floor plans of the anatomy of the WTC complex

The buildings fell too quickly. Jet fuel burns at roughly 400F, compare that to the burning temperatures to steel, aluminum-copper alloy, and titanium. The b-b shape pellets of oxidized metal that were found on the streets of Ground Zero are similar to those given off from a torch cutting process.

I have been recycling metal for over 20 yrs. The metallurgy trade involves much manual labor to get all materials into small manageable pieces three ft. and under to get the best price upon sale, in my experience metal does not fail as what happened at the word trade center on 9/11/01. Small scale recycling of cars small sheds and buildings involves the handling up close of all aspects of a structure, vehicle, machine.
What happened on 9/11/01 does not in any way look like an accident,not anyone anywhere had ever seen such an event aside from a planned demolition ,the structural integrity of the three buildings known as the north and south towers and building seven was clearly manipulated to cause a controlled demolition,there is a preponderance of evidence that lends credence to this assertion, physics prove it so. statistically speaking I am very certain that the probabilities of the only three steel structures to collapse as a result of the brief fires observed on 911, for this to occur never before or since but only on that day there and then, those three buildings. it simply cannot happen I do not believe it not for a second!

A native New Yorker born in 1940, I have been living and working in France and Europe since 1967. After five years with Booz Allen & Hamilton, founded and ran a Paris-base consulting and software development firm from 1972 until 1993.
The official 911 narrative of the WTC building collapses does not begin to explain the chemical or physical processses triggered by fire or otherwise capable of pulverising concrete into powder, hurling heavy steel beams hundreds of feet into neighboring buildings, or flinging human body parts onto rooftops. We cannot relent until questions like these are answered and those responsible for the evident controlled demolition of the three WTC buildings that collapsed nine years ago are brought to justice whoever they may be.

First thought was what they wanted everyone to believe. I have believed for a long time that things did not make sense or add up. Upon looking into all the videos and comments it is ubelievable how anyone can believe the fraudulant official story. The truth has to come out.

There are many 'things' related to the 9/11 Building collapses that have me aware of injustices done to life on site....I had friends perished and the emergency responders who perished and the truth of what happened to make the towers drop like that must be revealed in order for us to go on. Finding the truth is the only way to go. I want to live knowing the truth for those whom I lost.
