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.

Occupation: General Contracting
I am a member of a long line of commercial/industrial building contractors. My immediate family has been erecting steel-frame buildings in New York since the 1940s. I personally worked in the building trades for over ten years. As general contractors, we have hired other forces to take down large buildings using controlled demolition in order to pave the way for our new construction.
Using the naked eye alone, it is nearly irrefutable that the twin towers, as well as WTC Building 7, were brought down using controlled demolition. Steel-frame structures behave like steel-frame structures...EVERY TIME. There is only one way to explain the uniformity and symmetry with which the 9/11 buildings fell: controlled demolition.

I'm an EE, Lamar University 1988. Moved to Vienna Austria in the early 90's. I've run my own consulting firm since 1994. We make software systems for industrial clients, specializing in refinery finished product blending advanced process control and optimization, as well as power generation. We perform consulting services for the same industry. I don't work in construction (although I did back in the US), but the physics and math presented to refute the claims of NIST are simple enough for me to understand.
I don't know what happened, but having read quite a bit, and watched quite a few videos, it is clear that the official story is not true. We need a new investigation. Particularly easy to follow is the WTC 7 situation, 2.5 seconds of free-fall, after it was NOT hit by a plane and only had office furniture burning for some hours. No variables in that situation lead to free fall destruction of a steel frame skyscraper. It's collapse by fire is just not physically possible. Very many factors in WTC 1 and 2 also need a new investigation, but WTC 1 and 2 are (obviously) more complex than WTC 7.

I have always thought something was not quite right about the collapse of the two WTC towers. The way they disintegrated and created so much dust and smoke just does not make sense. And building 7 is completely bizarre. One second, a complete office building with some small fires, and then a perfect free fall collapse into its footprint.....amazing. We need to do a complete re-analysis of this event.

Occupation: Electrical And Mechanical Design Engineer
I studied electrical engineering at Sherbrooke University's coop program where I had a chance to get internships for an engineering firm specializing in institutional and commercial buildings, in the maintenance team for Sherbrooke University maintaining the electrical system for the entire campus, at a mining company working on the electrical system in the mine, and finally with a paper mill having similar responsibilities. After University, I found work as an assembler for my current employer assembling TEMPEST equipment for various government clients. After a year on the production floor, I was hired on the engineering team. Since then I have been designing TEMPEST equipment for the defense industry.
I was still at university on 9/11 and I remember the feeling of coming back home from class that morning and seeing the planes hit the buildings on TV... then seeing them collapse... over and over again...I remember seeing a quick news flash about WTC 7 which never made sense to me. No Plane, no official attack on it of any kind... really, no reason for it to fall. But, we went back to the reel of the planes hitting the two Towers and I kind of forgot about it. It was a few months later that I heard about it again and really started questioning it. I strongly believe that the demolition of WTC7 was planned and calculated. The only piece of the puzzle missing may have been a plane hitting it to give it a reason to fall. The evidence and the science behind it proves without the shadow of a doubt that there needs to be an independent study to finally find the truth on what happened to that building.

Objects move through the path of least resistance. Towers 1 and 2 collapsed through the path of most resistance. Normally, you would expect the layers to fall with increasing eccentricity as the collapse progressed, rather than through the centreline where the greatest resistance is. NIST's cascade theory depends on mathematical modeling, and as with all complex models, numerous assumptions are needed to get the model to run. An independent review is needed to verify the reasonableness and plausibility of the factors included in the model which was used to support the cascade theory. We need to independently verify whether the NIST analysis was a case of shooting the arrow and then painting the bulls eye around it. Furthermore, films of the collapse of WTC7 show a very improbable event: the symmetrical collapse of a building that was impacted by the WTC 1&2 debris asymmetrically. Both ends of WTC7 should not have begun their collapse at the same moment if left to chance alone. The collapses of WTC 1, 2, and 7, purely from an engineering point of view, and leaving out any political theories or implications, do not make sense without the assistance of explosives or other devices or some other as-yet unimagined factor to remove resistance and control the collapse. I very much recommend that the engineers, whose duty it is to determine the causes of collapse, remain unswayed by speculations and fears about political implications, and make their assessments based on the physics and engineering alone. The claims made by NIST seem to require multiple leaps of faith in highly improbable events. Improbable things do indeed happen, but as all good skeptics know: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I witnessed a white line flash (no smoke noticed) around the first tower to fall on 9-11-2001, about mid-height of the tower, on television coverage, in Northborough, MA, where I was working as a structural engineer.I visited one of the towers circa 1996; went to the top of that tower to visitor's viewing area. My 40 some years of structural practice anticipated on 9-11-2001 that each tower would remain erect and, possibly, bend above the impact/fire level. However, to progressively collapse so neatly onto their footprints, from my engineering experiences, could only have been accomplished by professional demo charges; same with WTC7 Building collapse.

I am not an engineer by training, but studied mathematics and physics. I am not a structural engineer, but I do have a good feeling for simple probability. The explanation that the intense heat of the fires caused the buildings to fall simply does not hold water. I would agree that the heat could weaken the structural steel, but the probability that the members would collapse in perfect unison so that not one but two buildings would collapse straight down is simply infinitesimal! The probability that Building 7 would fall many hours later from no evident cause is idiotic. As I say, I am not an engineer, but I know that demolition teams take weeks and weeks of planning and precisely timed charges to bring a down in the proper direction.

I have watched & read for more than 500 hours of documentary information about the 9/11. I am convinced that those buildings did not fail because of the fires. I must come to the conclusion that based on my knowledge of the laws of physics, the 9/11 Commission Report does not explain what happened on that day.

My concerns with the Twin Towers lie in the inconsistency with the method of collapse, i.e. a symmetric free fall collapse, when damage incurred was asymmetrical - one would anticipate a toppling of the upper tower. - - Tower 7's collapse is not at all consistent with the collateral damage it received - it's collapse was as well completely symmetrical and within its footprint that is difficult to rationalize from asymmetrical damage and fire. - - It is my opinion that the official story falls well short of explaining what happened on 9/11 and further investigation is required.

It is grateful to have a multi-discipline professional group questioning the reality of an incident that caused worldwide effects. Since 9/11, network of anti-terrorism organizations popped up like mushrooms around the world and thousands of people were put in jails without trials. It is important to justify the trueness of the 9/11 and independent investigation is a MUST for a justification.

My thorough multi-year review of documents, photographs, and videos of the 911 tragedy and false flag operation clearly and unequivocally indicate that some form of controlled demolition was utilized to destroy both the twin towers and building 7. Having worked with explosives in both underground and surface mining and construction scenarios, the evidence for controlled demolition is undeniable. Additionally, the overwhelming volume of evidence refutes the governments official position/statement regarding the 911 false flag tragedy. The government position is analogous to a FOX channel cartoon show for adults - which is entertainment in poor taste. Shamefully, the real perpetrators (criminals/mass murderers), more than likely federal and military level government officials, past or present, have not been brought to justice. It is my sincere desire that the truth be grasped by the larger audience of the mainstream public leading to a real investigation and prosecution and closure. It is my sincere desire that the truth be place upon the record.

For the last 15 years I have worked in both pre-sales and post-sales, specializing in design and implementation of mid-range and enterprise data storage arrays.
From the mountains of hard engineering evidence presented, from multiple disciplines, let alone the damning photos and videos from multiple angles and countless eye-witness accounts, it is obvious beyond all doubt that all three buildings were brought down by state-of-the-art controlled demolition, using massive quantities of explosives and thermite. To dispute this is absolute folly and ludicrous, like the emperor missing clothes. Even a five-year old child can watch the comparative side by side videos of the building 7 collapse and conclude nothing else. It is equally ludicrous to believe that some people in a cave halfway around the world could have masterminded and executed this, including having NORAD stand down on that fateful day. The 9/11 commission was nothing more that a rubber stamp flimsy sham coverup of the (equally obvious) false flag operation that actually took place, perpetrated (yet again equally obvious) by criminal elements within the U.S. government.

After viewing the documentation about the evidence surrounding World Trade Center 7, and comparing it to structural characteristics of building materials under fire conditions, the explanations given by NIST don't quite match up. While some structural failure of the building after prolonged exposure to fire conditions fueled by office materials is possible, large structural steel beams would yield slowly over time and the building collapsing all at once is all but impossible, unless it was engineered to do so.

NIST ignored solid evidence that did not support an apparent preconceived conclusion that there were no explosives. Yet molton steel is seen pouring out of the building in the videos, and at the base of the building according to firemen. The evidence was sent to China against protocol. Explosions were heard before the collapse. Debris was sent horizontally, explosively, including massive beams. Building 7 is an anomoly and has never happened before and experts say it was a controlled demolition. Why? The owner took out insurance for terrorism earlier. Much much more points to a well coordinated effort. Who was involved? We need to know.

I have not spent too much time technically considering how the Twin Towers fell but all media coverage and political statements for this disaster point to the fact that this is definitely not a terrorist act. The skyscrapers breaking apart was not a result of melting of the buildings framework but of possible external means of controlled demolition.

The official report is just not possible. The destruction, or the collapse as the mass media called this event, is not possible considering the laws of physics. Especially the mysteriously collapsed WTC7 is remarkable and astonishing and it is a absolutely a proof of a intended destruction of this building.

It is clear that there is much more to be learned than the 9/11 Commission report. Currently, many people justifiably believe that that report is in the same class as the Warren Commission report: a fraud. Because of this, many people are skeptical of all government activities. If, after a real investigation, the facts support the 9/11 Commission story, nothing could be more healing. If they don't, appropriate changes need to occur. And that could only be for the better. Clearly, the presence of molten steel and witness reports of explosions prior to airplane impacts or building collapse demand more research to either verify this explosive information, or debunk it with data.

I am qualified with a Masters degree in the first class in the subject of civil engineering from the University of Nottingham, UK. Since graduating in 2004 I spent six years as a civil engineer in Manchester, working mainly in the area of structural design and including over 2 years of construction site experience. Since July 2011, I have been working on a large construction project in Malta as a site engineer, structural designer and project manager.
Having researched every aspect of the collapses using sources such as the videos presented on the A&E website, it is my dedicated opinion that controlled demolition was responsible. Drawing on my structural engineering experience, my knowledge of physics, the evidence presented in numerous credible websites and books, and above all basic common sense, I consider gravitational collapse to be a wholly inaccurate description for the collapse mechanism as it is not in keeping with any of the physical evidence. Such evidence is easily accessible online for anyone who is willing to do their own research, though willingness appears to come second to willful ignorance in many cases, then worst of all there is apathy. Out of the many unexplained anomalies uncovered in the official story of 9/11, the building collapses (particularly WTC7) are the aspects most communicable to the public in raising awareness of these anomalies along with the puzzling fact that we do not yet have any proof of who orchestrated the attacks.

Based on the video presented, I agree with all parts of the analysis and associated conclusions. I believe further evidence displaying more facts (especially prior knowledge) to the 911 story can be found in the time frames a few days before and after the event. Essentially, find & follow the money trails of the persons or organizations who would have benefited from all the destruction...like wall street traders, insurance companies, governments...etc. There is so much more to investigate in putting together this story of what happened and who are responsible.

Curious about the towers collapse and failure mode from day one. However, did not began to review 911 videos until early 2012. Quickly came to the conclusion the physics of the collapse was not possible per the official story.

WTC-7 collapsed at free fall for 2.25 seconds, over 105 feet of its initial descent. We see the roofline go from stationary into absolute free fall. NIST agrees that WTC-7 collapsed at free fall on page 46 of the 'final report on the collapse of WTC-7' (not their rough draft). NIST acknowledges 105 feet of free fall for 2.25 seconds, but does not see a problem with this. I see a very big problem with this. Anyone that has something to hide about 9/11 is a suspect in my book. There ARE more terrorists still out there. We need to bring these people to justice! Lastly, on 9/10/2001, then secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced to the world that our Pentagon cannot account for 2.3 trillion dollars. The next day, 9/11/2001, nobody cared about his 2.3 trillion dollar announcement.

I am myself a civil engineer in constructions. I am not specialized in fire or skyscrapers calculations. But by the way tower 7 falls just because of fire, meaning perfect, coordinated failure and free fall makes me think that the fire explanation sounds not real for me.

Occupation: Chartered Rolling Stock Engineer
I hold a BEng (Hons) from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. I am a Chartered Engineer with over 20 years' experience in rolling stock (trains) in the UK, N & S Americas, Australasia, and SE Asia, specialising in rolling stock strategy and specification, including writing and implementing local, national, and international standards, which includes structural integrity, crashworthiness, and fire standards. I have been called on to act as Expert Witness on rolling stock damage cases, and have often carried out condition audits and assessments of rolling stock. I am also a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and a Member of the Institution of Railway Operators.
I was always uneasy about the WTC collapses, and the more I saw of the evidence, the less I liked the official explanation. As mentioned in my bio, I have worked with structural integrity and fire standards for rail vehicles, and although different in detail, they have significant fundamental similarities to architectural standards. The official report does no credit to the engineering community and is a slur on high rise designers who have had to justify why a plane could destroy a skyscraper, or a fire break out and make a building fall down. As the tragic events at the Grenfell Tower in London last year showed once again, high rise buildings do not fall down from fires. Grenfell was described as looking like 'a candle' yet still survives, but a 47 story building with some smouldering paper falls in on itself? The official explanations for the three WTC buildings are a joke and the engineering community needs to say enough is enough; it's time for the truth.

I support an investigation that addresses the evidence identified and the questions raised by the AE911 Truth movement regarding the WTC and Building 7 destruction. I suggest that the investigation should be undertaken by a high-caliber, non-politically-controlled entity (perhaps under the auspices of the National Academy of Science?) with public disclosure of its findings. If AE911 Truth evidence is rejected, minimized or refuted, cogent explanations should be provided.

According to the official story, the twin towers fell by FEMA's pancake theory driven by deterioration of the steel columns from the jet fuel initiated fires. This is inconsistent with the video and data: - no other documented cases of steel inforced building collapse from fire (see LA 1988, UK 1990, Philidelpiha 1991 fires which did not induce collapse) - the video shows that the buildings collapse in free fall, not a slower, fast/slow collapse which would be expected based on the pancake theory - it is not likely that an oxygen deficient, jet fuel initated fire could provide conditions to melt or oxidize steel

A thorough investigation is in order. The truth must be revealed. The collapse of Bldg #7 has all of the characteristics of a planned implosion.
