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.

As a mathematics major early in college, I attended physics/energy and introduction to engineering classes. I haven't received a degree in these disciplines, but I have some relevant education and have great respect for engineers and architects in general. I've attended symposiums at USC for sustainable design with architects and engineers in recent years. My related technical experience lies mostly in utilizing math to create expressions to animate computer-generated objects as a visual effects artist. I support the call for an accredited scientific investigation of 9/11.
If the laws of physics are true, and can be interpreted correctly to mean that a multi-level structure cannot collapse at the free fall speed of gravity without first having the underlying support structure removed faster than the free-fall speed of gravity...then we have a strong case for controlled demolition on visible evidence alone with Building 7.

Graduated Delft University of Technology in 1994, with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Followed several courses in Stiffness and strength and mechanics of structures. My major was Flexible production automation. Continued with a 2-year post graduate study to receive a Master of Technological Design degree in 1997. Have been working as an IT consultant in manufacturing since then.
The accelerated collapse of the WTC buildings at nearly perfect free-fall speed, is physically only possible with a controlled demolition of the support structure (core & outside) of the building. There is no feature of the collapse that would support the theory of a weakened steel structure. On the other side, all characteristics of the collapses point to controlled demolition. In addition there's a lot of other evidence that can be learned from David Gage's excellent lecture, like the thermite evidence, witnesses hearing explosions, molten steel etc. No scientist, engineer or architect seeing especially WTC7 falling, could deny this is anything but controlled demolition. When seeing quotes of the NIST report it becomes painfully obvious the collapse has not been researched or explained in a scientific manner.

I first become skeptical about the official 9/11 narrative while watching the NOVA episode on the subject with my mentor, engineer E. Thomas Casey - who did the calculations for Frank Lloyd Wright's Guggenheim Museum, among other projects - during which Mr. Casey expressed the depth of his disappointment with this particular piece of misinformation by quietly wiping a tear from his eye and simply saying, 'it is not true.'

Occupation: Senior Engineer
I graduated from Bergen University College in 1990 as a building engineer. I studied subjects like: Steel structures, Concrete structures, General dimensioning and structural analysis, Wooden structures, Housing construction, Road construction and design, Water supply, sewage and waste management, and also other subjects, including of course university level mathematics, physics, and characteristics of structural building materials.Since graduation, I have worked for some time with general road design, but mainly with planning and design of public transport systems, facilities for bus systems and terminals, and I have extensive experience in designing Light Rail systems.
The way the twin towers collapsed is not consistent with general knowledge of steel and concrete structures. If a building were to collapse, the rubble would have been multiple layers of concrete floors on the ground, not an enormous cloud of pulverized concrete dust. The tremendous dimensions, and thus strength of the steel columns used in this structure, is sufficient to hold three or four times the actual weight of the structure. There is no way these would either bend nor break in a collapse under normal circumstances. To do this, they had to be subject to very large and rapid quantities of energy (heat), throughout the whole vertical structure, almost simultaneously. As is the case in a controlled and carefully orchestrated demolition.

I carve jewelry from bone and antler, as well as producing various work with wood. I also paint. I am a pacifist and have been for over thirty years, not to say that i don't get angry, just that anger does not have to lead to violence. Anger is a healthy emotion, violence is a conscious decision
Since the first live transmission i have questioned the reports that were being disseminated and in my own efforts i have attempted to share as much information as i can with as many individuals as i can. The particular report that triggered alarm bells was the BBC reporting of the second plane crashing into the tower. I was watching a live transmission of BBC World in New Zealand and remember the very minute they broke into the regular broadcast with the incident of the first tower in New York. There was no doubt some confusion in the news rooms and i expected some uncertain details in the reports. I did not expect the complete absence of normal production standards, especially in a global newsroom The announcer was doing the talking head thing as the live transmission was broadcast behind her. the first tower was burning with a heavy dark smoke and the choppers where buzzing around looking for clues as to what had happened. Then the second plane entered shot and exploded as it penetrated the face of the second tower. i waited for the announcer to say something. The announcer waffled on repeating adnauseum the only thing they knew 'something has hit one of the towers at the World trade Center' nothing about the second building being hit. I waited. I waited a full four to five minutes before the words i will never forget we are getting reports that something may have happened to the second tower I always remember thinking the world witnessed that detail about five minutes ago so how come the announcer was not told what had been broadcast live on a screen behind her. This troubled me and was not raised as an issue until later in the day with the Building 7 fiasco where BBC World reported the collapse of a 47 story building twenty odd minutes before it happened. From that day i have been a Truther. I have limited resources but used creatively, i am finding numerous ways to bring questions to people, and answers to questions.

Strictly through the viewing of the fall of the towers and my familiarity with the principles of physics, I find it impossible to believe that the buildings collapsed in the fashion that they did due to the collision of the airliners alone. In addition, too many coincidences and discrepancies in the preparedness of our air force and government point to the fact that either this was planned and known, or our leaders are so grossly incompetent that they are not even qualified to tie their own shoes.

A brainy, nerdy child, I was politically right-wing in high school in Virginia, but gradually shifted to the left during and after my engineering training in North Carolina, until after moving to Berkeley, California in 1998. Since around 2000 my interests have shifted away from politics and toward spirituality and permaculture. My view is that we should know the truth but build a sustainable future rather than trying to fight evil.
The WTC was obviously destroyed by controlled demolition; no possible combination of plane crashes or fires could have caused that damage. Those who believe, They wouldn't have done it or They couldn't have gotten away with it may still be psychologically unable to accept that our country is possibly governed by a band of ruthless criminals. Minds open gradually. Once a person's mind begins to open to this reality, they (at least currently) have easy access to the available evidence.

After graduating, I took continuing education courses in computer science. My current profession is now digital forensic analyst. In this role I investigate all manner of incidents on computers. I look for facts to either substantiate or disqualify claims of activity that allegedly occurred on a computer system.
I knew almost immediately that the buildings did not, could not, fall as a result of airplane impact and fuel burning. The thing that stood out for me is that there was no precedent of a building completely collapsing as a result of fire. Even if the jet fuel could have weakened the steel beams, the towers would not have fallen straight down into their own footprints. The footage of the buildings collapsing looked too much like controlled demolition.

The planes that hit the twin towers damaged the facades, set fires. No apparent damage to structure. Fire spread entirely across building, two floors. Apparently tank on roof to supply sprinkler system had been drained. Explosion photographed, many floors below where planes hit, brought towers down. Molten steel found under all three buildings. It is utterly impossible to melt steel with a petroleum or wood fire. It is obvious that the buildings were brought down by materials put in place before the planes hit.

At first I was skeptical of the truth movement, but after careful analysis of the collapses, using my professional knowledge I came to the conclusion that explosive controlled demolition is the only option left to explain the collapse.

The kinematics of the collapse of WTC Buildings 1, 2, and 7 were indicative of a controlled demolition.Evidence includes the presence of nano thermite and molten steel in the basement of WTC 1 and 2, and the obvious controlled demolition of WTC 7 which had not been hit by an airplane. If WTC 7 was obviously brought down by demolition, then we can conclude with a rather high probability that WTC 1 and 2 were also brought down by demolition. The obvious question is who is responsible for the suppression of an enlightened investigation of this disaster. This is a very important question since if we knew the who and why is responsible for the suppression of information, then we might be able to better determine the individuals responsible for this attack.

The Truth is that huge, that it seems that only technicians, hiding behind their technical knowledge, dare to speak out their opinion about this terrible event about using explosives. Non-technicians are excused by not-understanding and do not compromise themselves. Is that why politicians prefer to act as technical imbeciles?

A building does not come down within its own foot print except by controlled explosive materials properly placed on the building structure. In my opinion, the fires should have been controlled on the top floors that were impacted. The building came down within its own foot print which points to demolition explosives. Building 7 was not impacted by a place but was reduced to rubble from what I understand. Where were the CIA and FBI? If known by these organizations, why was there an apparent absence of security! Are there available or obtainable records from these organizations? Surely, some information was obtained prior to this whole incident! A plane crashed into the Pentagon, but did not destroy the whole building -- is it because of the extensive security maintained in and around the building? I am aware of Pentagon security because I took some classes in the Pentagon. In my opinion, in the absence of any explosives, many people should have survived.

The evidence as presentd by AE911Truth proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that World Trade buildings were felled by explosives. (Unless this evidence is a compete fabrication, which no one, to my knowlege, asserts.) Evidence refuting the official explanation of the Pentagon attack and the crash of the fourth plane, as laid out by David Ray Griffin, is also credible and convincing. The implications of this evidence are that of a monstrous evil,and we are at a crossroads - either compel the disclosure of the truth, or succumb to this evil.

I would like to see more info on control groups which support AE911 data....meaning...in a professional building demolition has the presence of iron spheres/thermate been detected? Is that the norm? If WTC7 was brought down by mechanisms other than controlled demolition, then why are not professionals in the field of demolition lining up to patent these mechanisms (reductio ad absurdum)?

Not only are the twin tower collapses in question, but the plane crash into the Pentagon needs further review. It seems unrealistic that more debris was not found on the site. Same goes for the PA plane crash in the middle of a field. Further investigation is needed in all 4 plane crashes. It smells like a cover up.

After earning an engineering degree following a curriculum that was primarily a hybrid of mechanical/industrial/manufacturing engineering, I worked awhile for a multi-national heavy industrial construction firm. After that, I moved into the software industry, and have worked as a developer/software engineer ever since.
The piece of evidence that I find most compelling is the sudden initial free-fall descent of building 7. This alone demonstrates conclusively that something other than a fire-induced collapse occurred. Some other inconsistencies I find very telling are the molten metal seen pouring out of the south tower just prior to collapse, the sudden and symmetrical nature of all three collapses, the lack of equal and opposite destruction in the towers, the missing jolt principle, the lack of erect core columns in the debris piles, the lack of any historical precedent, etc.

I am a former Marine and Research Engineer with over 30 years' experience. I'm dedicated to researching alternative fuels after realizing one day that prohibition was not about drinking alcohol, but its competition against Rockerfellers Standard Oil profits for vehicle use. This world stinks of special interest!
Anyone who believes the US government's lies about 9/11 probably also believes in the Easter Rabbit and other fairy tales. The evidence is obvious, WAKE UP!

I have 15 years' experience as a telecommunications engineer, and 10 years working various jobs in the oil field from hydrostatic tubing testing to open hole wireline operation.
Examining the facts leads me to believe that all 3 towers were controlled demolitions.

I worked for the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) for over seventeen years, and retired 2/21/2008.
On September 11, 2001, I was working in Denver, Colorado. When I arrived at the office on the 4th floor, there was much agitation about a plane that had hit one of the twin Towers. Several in our work group went to an office on the 1st floor that had a TV and stood and watched as the 2nd plane flew into the other tower. As we stood and watched it hit, I was saying Don't fall, don't fall. I was struck with disbelief when it collapsed. Recently I have seen videos of the collapse of Building 7. It seems quite obvious that explosives were used. And, if this is true, it is most likely true that explosives brought down the twin towers.

I obtained his Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez, which is accredited by ABET (American Board for Engineering and Technology). I graduated magna cum laude with 176 credit hours, and am a member of the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). I am currently a member of the Subgroups on Air-Operated Valves and Relief Valves of the ASME Committee on Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants. I worked as a systems engineer in the Nuclear Steam Supply Systems Branch at the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, and was also the Deputy Engineering Group Supervisor for the Mechanical Group of the Bechtel Power Nuclear Operating Plant Services Project. I currently work as a Mechanical Engineer for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Division of Component Integrity. I also served in the US Army, am a former Scout Master with the Boy Scouts of America, and served as a math mentor with the Higher Achievement Program in Washington, DC.
After studying the 9/11 Commission Report, the NIST reports, and comparing them to publicly available evidence and records (i.e., first-hand testimony from first-responders, independent video footage from multiple sources, and peer-reviewed reports from reputable scientists on forensic evidence not discussed in the official reports, etc.), I have come to the conclusion that the official reports are inaccurate and incomplete. The cause of the collapse of the WTC buildings, including WTC-7, as evidenced by video footage, is incompatible with the conclusions stated in the official reports. The conclusions of the official reports, when compared to the available body of evidence, contradict Newton's laws of motion. Given the overwhelming public interest in a new independent investigation, and given all the evidence not considered in the official reports (testimonial and forensic), and considering the impact of 9/11 on our daily lives and on our national and foreign policy, it is imperative that a new independent investigation be conducted and that the root cause of the collapse of the WTC buildings be established. In order to preserve the public trust, the new investigation must be peer-reviewed by an independent panel of scientists and engineers and the new commission must have the authority to subpoena anyone deemed necessary to properly conduct its investigation.

The findings of NIST are unacceptable considering the omission of critical and publicly available physical evidence and eyewitness testimony. The world deserves an accurate and fully inclusive report.

I'm an environmental engineer working in Oakland, CA. I received my Master's and Bachelor's degrees from Iowa State University.
I have a thorough educational background in structural design and I have no doubt that WTC 7 could not have fallen from mere fire damage. I want answers now!

The Perfect vertical symmetry (No toppling) of the collapse seems to be highly improbable, as well as the thoroughness of destruction of the major elements of the bearing wall outer steel structure. It all seems to indicate a possible Engineered Demolition.

A new and truly independent investigation with full access to previously denied evidence is demanded since the current official 9/11 report statements are not consistent with documented facts on this case.
