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 a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Military Institute in 1968. I have an EIT in Virginia, Alabama, and Georgia. I worked for GE as an electrical engineer before being drafted and serving in the Vietnam war. I designed control systems for HVAC systems for large commercial and industrial buildings.
After intensely studying all available evidence and facts for over a decade, it's clear to me that the official explanation about what happened on 9/11 is absurd. The three buildings that collapsed in lower Manhattan were clearly controlled demolitions. There are still many unanswered questions about 9/11. I wonder why the U.S. Government has no interest in finding (or disclosing) the truth.

Simply put, the collapse of the twin towers as described by the NIST report defies Newton's laws (unless explosives were used).

Following my BS in Civil Engineering, I ended up working 25 years internationally in upstream oil and gas. My background in structures as well as with explosives has helped me understand the issues regarding the destruction of these buildings.
While watching the first edition of Loose Change on TV here in France around 2003, I saw the collapse of Tower 7. I knew immediately that this was a demolition. And then I jumped down the rabbit hole, into an uncertain world. For me, the US government has no credibility at home nor internationally until it resolves this crime.

Occupation: Tradesman, Mechanical
Diesel mechanic by trade, seventeen years in the industry, specializing in all aspects of heavy truck/machinery repair and maintenance. Welding, cutting, and fabrication (steel and aluminum) are a big part of my trade. Through the years I have also worked for a few welding companies, and I have done both construction, and demolition. Some of my hobbies include astronomy, electronics, automation, exploration, and researching just about everything that tickles my fancy.
I was a volunteer working at Ground Zero with a mobile welding company. We were one of the first non-union welding companies on site. I remember as we rolled up, the dust in the air was still very thick, and covered everything in the area making it hard to focus. As my eyes adjusted, and I got my first good look at the pile that was once 2 World Trade Center, I was in disbelief! How could such enormous buildings have made such a small piles? Then I noticed many of the surrounding buildings didn't suffer any significant damage, and the streets and walkways were clear of large debris. All the columns seemed to be so neatly stacked, and the rubble so concentrated in such small areas, it seemed there had been a cleanup effort going on for days before we got there! And this was just about twelve hours after they came down! Impossible I thought. This cant be right! I turned to my friend and said These buildings couldn't have come down any cleaner if it was a planned demolition! He agreed! We didn't give it much more thought at the time because we had one hell of a job ahead of us. After returning home I really started to think about the whole situation. Nothing made sense about it! So I started doing my own research. I've seen every theory from alien technology to nanothermite paint. The only thing I can say for certain is that the reasons we were given for the collapse of those buildings are a lie! I still live with nightmares from my experiences on the pile. And every time I see it played over on the news I can still smell it and taste it in my throat. Hopefully the nightmares will be the only thing that plagues me and I don't develop cancer as well. Either way I will pay my dues for my good deed, I just want to know the truth! As do many other people around the world who don't live with their heads up their asses! I think We The People deserve it!!

Woke up to the news on TV. Asked my wife the date and then said omg 9/11. What an awful coincidence. Bought the 'official story ' until my own online research changed my view forever. I call it the day the government crapped on America. Pardon my French. Wow the karma they've created for themselves is astronomical. Let's get em!! History should be the Truth.

AA - liberal arts. AS - civil engineering technology. BS - construction management technology. One river crossing, and two highway over-passes as a form carpenter. Safety Specialist on the largest drawbridge in North America, Portland, Maine. Field engineer on two bridge replacements in Epsom, NH. Project engineer for a multitude of projects, including: several nursing homes (KY, CT, NJ, MA), two flammable materials warehouses (Kansas City, MO), heavy warehouse transformation to mixed-use occupation (Riverside Center, Newton, MA). Project Manager for two tenant fit-outs, Boston, MA. Co-owner, managing partner, Horizon Builders (residential construction), dozens of 'heavy-renovations', multitude of weatherization projects (Southern Maine).
Beyond the politics of who and how, it is contrary to my education that these THREE buildings could defy physics and collapse (nearly) simultaneously. I have long contended that, given the safety factors involved, that Towers 1 & 2 could collapse to grade elevation without the upper reaches of the structures toppling over. It seems for the duration of the event(s), the debris was being ejected *away* from the structures, thus effectively INCREASING the strength of the lower portions of the column sections. (Sadly, people who have no knowledge of structural design or strengths of materials will never grasp the significance of what I'm explaining). Also, the official explanation for Building 7 is reprehensible. The notion that a single column 'walking off its seat' has no legitimacy due to the redundancy within that structure. Columns don't walk off their seats, they're substantially connected with bolts or other anchors. In all three cases, the buildings seem to have been 'helped' to collapse to ground elevation, and within Thor own foot-prints.

Worked in the Oil and Gas Industry for 30 years and have been involved in many Refineries and Oil rigs and fully understand structural design, and with some fire training, I can not come to terms with office fire causing WTC 7 to collapse straight down. This is not right.
All three buildings were designed to the highest standard and then some, a structure that could hold three times the weight above, yet all three buildings fell to the ground! The ONLY reason WTC 1 & 2 fell to the ground is in a controlled manor. Two identical buildings that were hit by two planes and yet fell down exactly the same........not right there, then there's WTC 7 this is a simple controlled demolition...plain and simple. You can't even defend this, office furniture on fire and melts all structure in symmetry again it falls to the ground........add the explosions evidence and it's plain and simple. CONTROLLED DEMOLITION X 3.
