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.

Nowhere in academia or in practice is there evidence to support the NIST's assertion of a new phenomenon. This is a discredit to the entire Institute. Cover-up of truth, is however, not new at all, although it is enjoying an apparent resurgence in popularity. Why can't we get a serious and independent (non-government) investigation of this phenomenon?

I am an Electrical Engineer in digital control systems controlling fuel injection on internal combustion engines with eleven years' experience.
1. Any material moving upward or horizontally needs force to provide the motion in the corresponding axis of direction. The building was non-moving, then it began to move downward. The force causing the movement is purported to be gravity which only effects movement downward or to the center of the earth. Material found moving away from the center of the earth (upward) is particularly suspect especially if it has a large density when compared to the density of air. If one could distinguish from photographs types of material moving upward with corresponding velocities it would be insightful. 2. Loud noise reaching a distant camera before downward motion of the building is suspect.

While not a licensed engineer, I have studied engineering all my life.
Ask any demolition company, the hardest thing in the world to accomplish is to make a building fall down within its own footprint. Towers topple! Even buildings like building 7 do not simply fall inward, they spill out on one side or one corner. Building 7 is a perfect example of a controlled implosion! Watch footage of demolitions gone wrong, there are some buildings about that size the ended up rolling like a block and ending up on their own roof (and down the street). And the towers themselves, were in free fall. These building should have toppled near and towards the impact areas, especially the second plane that hit the corner of the tower. If you do believe that the towers pancaked, where are the 23 structural columns in each tower? When floors like this pancake, say in parking structure, the columns remain standing. Since not all the columns were damaged, some should have been left standing--all 110 stories! These columns were very strong, after all they did support the entire structure, and even if they had been knocked down in the destruction, they too would have toppled (not pulverized) and fallen into other buildings or down the streets for blocks away from ground zero. Americans are accustom to watching controlled demolitions on the television, this is exactly what we all saw.

I'm an architect not a demolition engineer, but I find it impossible to believe that two effectively identical buildings, hit asymmetrically, at differing levels, would collapse in a similar manner at near the speed of a falling cricket ball without 'inside' help. And as for WTC 7... you've got to be joking. Sounds extremely fishy to me.

My wife and I were horrified as we watched the live news reports of that day, particularly when we saw the second plane hit Tower 2. Over the next few days I continued to watch video replays of Twin Towers 1 & 2 and could not comprehend how both towers could collapse as they did. As a Structural Engineer, it made no sense to me how the structural framing system below the impact level did not continue to support the structure. It was only in the last few weeks, as I researched and found this site, that I found out that building 7 had also collapsed. I agree that it has the classic signs of a controlled demolition. Thanks to all of you who created this site. I am proud to be part of the cause to get congress to conduct a full investigation.

As a late-bloomer, I graduated cum laude with a BA from Manhattanville College with a double major in religion and classics when I was 44 and earned an MA in the Humanities ten years later.
Even a layman like me would know that the third building that came down was not affected by the planes and and the fires they caused at all. Why did that neighboring building collapse, and why did it come down so neatly in its own footprint? Any thinking person would expect that the original fires started by the explosions of the gas tanks of the planes that penetrated the Twin Towers would burn offices around them but would be confined to those floors. The Twin Towers were not built like flammable frame houses. I wondered how fires on the top floors of a skyscraper could cause the entire building to collapse?

Ten years later, no details of the digital image of the Towers, 1 & 2, damaged structures and model has been published by NIST. Those of WTC 7 do not correspond to observable reality. The 2.25 seconds of WTC 7 free fall is one of much evidence of the intentional demolition. For his theory of gravitational progressive collapse, Bazant uses a value of free fall acceleration, which allows him to overestimate the kinetic energy available for the first ....missing jolt.... He plays down then the energy dissipated in plastic deformation of the poles using a model that buckling does not match the behavior of short columns and the AISC prescriptions, which recommended that the critical stresses of decline, be close to the poles compression resistance. This requirement does not allow poles to bend under a load of axial compression. Bazant's calculations are wrong. For the failure of the North Tower poles, it was necessary that all the poles reach 750 ' C. NIST simulations can be concluded that the steel did not reach these temperatures with office fires ...

Always thought there was something fishy about this. If there is nothing to hide, then why are they hiding everything? Originally from Maine, I grew up in a somewhat conservative family and when I could vote for the first time I voted for Nixon. History has shown that I made a massive mistake and feel I owe George McGovern an apology for believing Nixon's lies about him, especially after reading about McGovern's WWII bomber pilot exploits in Stephen Ambrose's excellent book 'The Wild Blue'. While discussing politics with a conservative friend, he asked me how my political views could change from being conservative to Liberal. My response was I got an education. That's what we need here. We need to learn the truth, educate people, and take steps to ensure this never happens again. Remember The Maine!

While at Boeing, I participated in an accident investigation and witnessed how many parts (hydraulic actuators for spoilers, elevators, and rudder) were salvageable despite the high-speed impact of that crash (Silk Air 185.) Have also worked at Raytheon Missile Systems (Tucson, AZ) in EKV seeker design group. Have also worked at ITT (Huntsville, AL) on lethality testing (high-speed (~mach 2.5 - 6) impacts to verify lethality of missiles.) Currently work at Integration, Innovation, Inc. a defense contractor working on hypersonic missile design.
I skipped work on 9/11 to watch the whole day's coverage of the various attacks (WTC, Pentagon, Shanksville.) I absolutely remember hearing explosions, hearing people describe explosions, watching WTC 7 go down (I always knew 3 buildings went down that day.)All of the high-speed impact debris that I have examined have left significant portions of the original vehicle clearly identifiable and not entirely vaporized. The Silk Air plane hit the water above mach 1. Other identifiable debris I have handled have been from impacts from mach 2.5 to mach 5.None of the 9/11 events involved such high-speed impacts. Therefore, HUGE amounts of clearly identifiable debris should have been recovered from the World Trade Center, Pennsylvania and the Pentagon. Otherwise, the official story doesn't make sense.

The number of people who died or suffered as a direct result of 9/11, is serious enough, but the death and destruction in Iraq and Afghanistan, estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands, demands some justice for the perpetrators. With respect to the future welfare of our children and grand children, the in-your-face destruction of our nation since 9/11 is a major concern. We are at great risk of losing our free society if we do not get active to prevent the loss.

I have for a long while been curios to the events of september 11, 2001. I have adopted the stance that emperical evidence and experimentation is the foundation for good science, something the official explanations of 9/11 seem to be overlooking.I am still searching for some good documented experimentation proving the official claims that WTC 7 collapsed due to fires, and that WTC 1 & 2, could collapse and pulverise almost completely due to the upper sections freefalling falling a couple of floors or so.

The 'official' report on how World Trade Center 7 was demolished defies fundamental engineering principles. This is cause for great concern in the engineering community. An investigation needs to take place to determine what actually happened, or, in the unlikely case that the official report is true, we need to determine what is wrong with our engineering principles. Either way, an investigation needs to happen.

The WTC Building 7 collapse is simply not explained by the 'official' NIST account. For a simultaneous, global collapse to occur through multiple materials and structural elements, an externally initiated, catastrophic force must have been instantaneously applied across the entire building support mechanism. This needs further investigation and those responsible brought to account.

Millions of dollars of United and American Airlines 'put-option' stocks were traded in the week leading up to the attack. There were blatant business ties between the Bush family and Osama bin Laden. Only one flight was allowed in the air after the attacks, flying 140 Saudi nationals home to safety. And these are just a few of the conspicuous events tied to that day.But the use of those events as justification to go to war, ostensibly makes 9/11 a false flag event used as an imperialist grab of oil reserves, miring us in an endless conflict with no light at the end of the tunnel. Terrorism persists, Operation Iraqi Freedom created a bigger monster in ISIS, and the situation in Afghanistan is still a quagmire. But the truth behind the events of that day still remain shrouded by government cover-ups and harsh ridicule of those who dare to question that narrative. All the elements of the events that have transpired since that day are the classic building blocks of a false flag operation. And a majority of Americans believe the government is concealing information about 9/11, while 15 percent believe the towers were brought down in a controlled demolition.

Fire on a few floors does not remove all structural support of a 110 story structure. Below the fire was unaffected steel and concrete with a design strength to support five times the weight of the building. Any collapse would have stopped immediately at a few floors. Instead we are told to believe 110 floors of structure magically and instantaneously turned into butter allowing the free fall of the building. Collapse cannot cause the concrete of the whole building to turn to dust. There would be a pile of concrete rubble in the building foot print or nearby. Instead 90% of buildings 1 & 2 are spread all over lower Manhattan as fine dust. This is blatantly not believable!

I am hoping to get actively involved with the group by using these skills and spreading the message.
I have watched all the evidence and believe there is no physically possible way for three buildings to fall in this way unless it was controlled demolition. Fact. There's not much else to it.

There is undeniable evidence that WTC buildings 1, 2, and 7, falling in a very synchronous and even manner, were man-induced demolitions. The government has never presented anything concrete that proves otherwise. NIST's presented data is so inconclusive it is simply hilarious. Wake up people, and force the government to expose the truth. There are people in government who must fall for this, including a couple of presidents.

As an engineer, the evidence presented here seems to be overwhelming and definitely warrants further investigation and answers. As there is such an abundance of evidence to the contrary then I don't see any reason to not re-investigate 911 and get to the truth. Even if the official theory is correct, then a real and independent investigation will find that out anyways so there is nothing to worry about. If AE911truth are wrong, then they are wrong and we put it to rest, however if they are right, then the implications of this are huge. Good luck - I admire your courage, and fully support your call for a new, independent investigation into the destruction of the three skyscrapers at the World Trade Center on 9/11.

Building 7 was controlled demolition. Its behavior was consistent with controlled demolition in that it was an imploding free-fall, and there weren't any external stimulus at all that could have brought it down. It takes the best controlled demolition team 2 weeks to wire a building for demolition. So, there was knowledge of the attack before it occurred.

From the evidence of video footage my hypothesis is that the WTC building were destroyed by controlled demolition. Building 7 was an excellent example of a free falling controlled demolition of a typical large building. Fires do not cause this type of symmetrical reduction in size within it's own foot print. All other explanations are simply illogical. Control demolition is my firm hypothesis from pure scientific observation. Further analysis of the facts is mandatory for development of the truth.

The dissertation, in Chapter 4 'Asset Pricing Circularity', debunked the single-equation simultaneity in the prominent Three-Factor Model for stock-portfolio pricing, in order to demonstrate a newly discovered, scientific, stock-portfolio pricing anomaly.
Western scientific method requires selecting the most parsimonious hypothesis that fits all the facts, not selecting the facts that fit a preconceived hypothesis. According to scientific methodology, based on the evidence available in 2013, all three of the World Trade Center buildings, North Tower, South Tower and WTC7, were destroyed as a result of controlled demolition. Explaining how is a straightforward application of science and engineering, but explaining why may have to be explained by other learned disciplines such as political science, economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology and philosophy.

I want to support every movement and organization which challenge the official story and demand an independent investigation of the destruction of 3 skyscrapers back in 9/11/2001.-Pancaking (looking exactly like controlled demolition), at high speed, of especially the 3rd tower,-

Worked for 6 years in Ireland, where I gained my Chartered Engineers status. I worked primarily on the design of steel frame buildings. I took a huge interest in the fireproofing of these in the wake of 9/11 and quickly began to realise that this simply could not be the cause of the buildings collapse.Since leaving Ireland for Vancouver, BC, I worked as a project engineer for a large ports and marine design consultant.
I have over 10 years experience in designing concrete and steel framed buildings. To date I have only seen the destruction the likes of that seen on the 11th of September 2001 in a controlled demolition. I have experience with controlled demolition and it bears all the hallmarks of a controlled explosion, all three buildings.If it is the case that building 7 collapsed due to fire from office furnishings, why isn't there an immediate investigation into why our design/building codes are insufficient for buildings of this type. This is the most damning evidence off all in my opinion. If the claim that the fire from office furnishing created enough heat to melt steel then I'm afraid every steel framed office/residential building across the globe is at risk, with the high probability of significant loss of life.

I have a B.Eng (Hons) degree in Electronics and Communications Engineering, and now work as a Software Engineer.
We need a full, independent, impartial, public investigation into how and why Building 7 collapsed. Small fires at one side of the building (and no fire at the other side) can not be the cause of it coming down uniformly and at free fall acceleration. - - - - There is overwhelming evidence that explosives were used and this must be investigated rather than being seemingly covered up. - - - - For the safety of present and future generations, we must know what happened.

Jet fuel burning does not create heat sufficient to weaken or soften steel. Building #7 was never struck yet it magically caught on fire, 2 blocks away, and fell as if demolished.
