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.

1) From a metals engineering perspective, my experience tells me that it is impossible for jet fuel to melt (liquefy) structural steel, yet there were rivers of glowing molten iron under ground zero for weeks after 9/11 as evidenced by eyewitness accounts and US Geological aerial thermographs. - - - - 2) Compounding the impossibility of fuel to melt steel is the massive heat sink of the huge central core weldments of the twin towers. However, these core structures are always left out of official discussions and computer generated simulations of these events. - - - - 3) The black smoke of the twin towers is evidence that the jet fuel fires inside were burning cool. Black smoke is an indication of an oxygen deprived fire - the towers were smoldering, not melting. Further evidence of the cool fires is radio records of NYC firefighters discussing how they only need two or three hoses to knock them out. - - - - 4) From a purely logical perspective, the official story does not make sense because of the events surrounding WTC 7 which was a full block away from the twin towers yet the buildings directly between it and the towers remained standing even though they were directly rained on by falling debris. WTC 7 was neither struck by an aircraft, nor significantly damaged by debris. - - - - 5) The following is a MUST SEE video: At just after 5pm EST, the BBC news had their NYC correspondent Jane Stanley in front of their studio window overlooking ground zero and reported that the Solomon Brothers Building (official name of WTC 7) had collapsed - when in fact it was standing like new in the background right behind her. How did they know about the collapse 20 minutes ahead of time? - - - - CONCLUSION: If someone knew of at least one of the collapses ahead of time and jet fuel was not the reason for the collapse, then there must be some other reason for that collapse. It logically follows that if this true explanation is being covered-up, it is probably the same explanation for all three buildings.

From my engineering intuition, the way the Towers collapsed due to fire is impossible. Many people have shown by using simple physics calculation that the upper floors cannot cause complete failure. I would really like to know the real cause of the collapse.

The presence of molten iron weeks after the building collapses is absolutely damning to the official story. The ubiquitous spheroid/ellipsoid particles of iron (not steel) in the dust is compelling evidence of the use of thermite incendiaries. The collapse of WTC 1&2 is not simply gravitational - there are outward explosions with forces and energies that could not be generated by a simple gravitational collapse. The building collapses serve as close models for volcanic eruptions with the pyroclastic plumes which are outward and slightly upward in some of the trajectories and the molten material. Much attention has been placed on whether jet fuel can burn at high enough temp to weaken the steel. However, an important consideration is whether the burning of the expected amount of jet fuel would even have enough energy after combustion to bring the steel columns to the temperatures to weaken the steel. One 9/11 Researcher did such a calculation that I think is worthy of more notice or scrutiny. He assumed that the burning of the jet fuel to be confined within a single floor and that there would be no heat transfer outside of that floor; he further assumed that the jet fuel was burned with maximum efficiency in air to produce the greatest amount of heat. He then made estimates for the mass of steel, cement, product gases, etc that would be within that single floor. Each assumption tended to err on the side of producing the maximum temp increase so the amount of steel and concrete might were somewhat underestimated and their respective heat capacities were assumed to be constant w.r.t temp although heat capacity tends to increase at higher temp. These are, of course, all outrageous assumptions, particularly the idea that there will be no heat transfer during this time, especially no heat conduction vertically along the column beyond the single floor (one out of over 100). Even with these extreme assumptions there is still not enough heat released to increase the temperature of the contents of the single floor to a temperature to weaken the steel. While the maximum temperature at which jet fuel burns is a valid point, I find this argument to be more compelling. My last comment is that I feel personal shame for not heeding the truth movement sooner. It is difficult for a normal person to entertain the possibility that our government would do such a thing. The issue really is not the amount of evidence or how compelling it is. The issue for the average person is whether he can begin to consider this as a possibility and how much the person is willing to examine the wealth of information available.

I was shocked when I saw WTC #1&2 collapse at near freefall acceleration, and I knew immediately that explosives had to have been used to remove the resistance of the concrete and steel BELOW the area where the planes hit.Then when I saw WTC #7 fall at free fall acceleration, I knew that there was a big problem with the official story. I am grateful that I am an engineer and have an analytical mind. I have been very disappointed with so many friends and family members who refuse to think for themselves and just blindly trust the government, even though the official story is easily refuted by using simple physics.

The officially distributed version of events does not add up scientifically or logically. Anyone who has ever seen controlled demolitions of buildings, can see that these were textbook examples of professional controlled demolitions. How come Mark Loiseaux and Controlled Demolitions Inc. (CDI) was on scene so quickly with all flights shut down right after? Major news outlets ( BBC, Fox and CNN) all announced the collapse of WTC 7 ( as well as specific details: the 47 story Salomon Brother Building has also collapsed, due to fires) far in advance of the actual collapse - proving foreknowledge and indicating that a cover story was being fed to the media. The alleged phone calls from the plane from the FBI inspector General's wife, speaking of hijackers with box cutters ( the source of that part of the myth), were impossible back then: cell phones didn't work at that altitude and there were NO phones on the backs of the seats in that type of plane.

It is inconceivable that the World Trade Center buildings collapsed as they did because of fires as the public has been led to believe. This is not just an opinion, but a very well educated guess. Although I studied electrical engineering, Georgia Tech--as most engineering universities--required that I take courses in physics, statics, dynamics, thermodynamics.

I realized, after 2 hours of watching and listening to TV on 911 about the events at the WTC, that the discernible facts were not as described by the frivolous official statements and later stories. However and by whomever the actions were carried out and the patsies recruited, it was totally different than the official statements concluded and reports indicated. My current conclusions, based upon extensive reading, historical comparisons, physical and chemical analysis, discussions, lectures, and the viewing of available videos, as well as the political, military, and financial policies that have been undertaken since 911, all support my initial assumptions about the 911 events.

I am familiar with explosions and their debris fields, being involved with 2 Titan Missile explosions. From the evidence available regarding the 9/11 twin towers, it is my expert opinion that a fully funded investigation of all the evidence should be opened. There was a total destruction of 3 buildings in an explosive manner, as seen in the videos. We need to determine possible causes other than just the impact of 2 aircraft flying into the buildings. I also believe that a chemical reaction was required to melt steel, and note that traces of explosive chemicals have been found in the debris field.

Isaac Newton has made the only statement that should be needed to justify an independent investigation into 9/11. Ironically, this same statement made by Newton, which would later become Three Laws, guided civilization without fault for over 300 years until 9/11. These Laws faulted on that day not because of an error in Newton's calculations, but because civilization chose to ignore them. I cannot, however, as to do so would be to brazenly disregard the physics on which our society is built. The government's explanation and public's currently held view regarding the collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7 does not fully take into account Newton's Three Laws of Motion. In every other aspect of our profession, Architects and Engineers have a civic duty to use these Laws to keep the public safe. 9/11 should be no exception.

WTC Building 7 is the only structure that is even relevant, considering it was hit by absolutely nothing on 9/11/2001. There was no airplane, drone strike, conventional missile from the Air Force or the Navy, massive debris from the collapsing Twin Towers, or any natural phenomena such as an earthquake, tornado, tidal wave, that came into contact with WTC 7. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the building was conveniently demolished by means of controlled demolition, as is clearly shown in any video clip recorded by non-governmental agencies. Not for a second will I accept that office fires brought down a 50-story, high-rise building in lower Manhattan, built of high-strength structural steel and reinforced concrete in a highly developed, Western nation that has some of the strictest building codes and demanding licensing processes for engineers and architects! So if one building exhibited such a collapse mechanism, how about the Twin Towers themselves? What about the Pentagon? The 9/11 Commission Report is filled with gaping holes and flaws and is blatantly biased, basically the equivalent of Fox News! It should not take this many architects and engineers, among other professionals, to realize that something was deliberately done on that world-changing day. If the scientific reasoning and engineering principals that we are made to believe in this report contributed to the collapse of the three structures in NYC, then I have no hope left for America, because apparently, critical thinking and asking questions and challenging authority are quickly becoming undemocratic and treasonous! 9/11 was an inside job and I demand an independent investigation by professionals, not war mongers and profiteers!

The sound & acoustical phenomenon that occurred prior to and during the destruction of all three buildings is in direct contradiction with any reports/explanations offered by NIST, the 9/11 Commission or our Government. It does however offer irrefutable proof founded in the most basic principals of physics that these were controlled demolitions. There is a complete lack of evidence to prove otherwise. Had these building been a part of any other occurrence outside of 9/11 no one would even consider another possible explanation other than controlled demolition. You couldn't ask for a stronger, more comprehensive and air tight case.

It is obvious that these buildings failed due to a controlled demolition. Even if steel could weaken from a jet fuel fire, it would not fail in that manner. WTC Building 7 would have not failed from a simple fire of office furniture. And if it did fail, it would not have a free fall collapse. A free fall collapse can only happen if the structural steel columns are compromised evenly and simultaneously.

Watching the taped strike of the 1st aircraft and the live coverage of the 2nd strike and the building collapses a short time later, it was obvious that there was something wrong with the falling of the buildings and the government reactions as reported. Then the fires in WTC 7 and it's collapse later in the day -- made no sense whatsoever.The facts of what I watched compared to what I knew scientifically and practically did not match. I felt it obvious from the first that it was just wrong.

I remember September 11, 2001 and being confused about why building 7 collapsed from a mere office fire. I had seen fire damage on a steel frame building before, but never a complete uniform collapse from an office fire. It seemed odd to me at the time, but the shock of the event distracted me from thinking about it further at the time.

The buildings dropped at free fall velocity. That is physically impossible unless the lower floors are knocked out before the upper floors of the dropping structure encounter them. The burning fuel could weaken the lower floors, but not cause their resistance to the falling structure to drop to zero. In the case of Building 7 there was no fuel to burn and fires in that building could not have burned in a pattern symetrical enough to allow the building drop in its own footprint, aside from the fact that the fires could not have been hot enough to bring the steel structure down.

I would like a thorough investigation in to the events that occurred on 9/11. There is not enough irrefutable evidence to suggest that the towers collapsed the way they did because of the events that are explained in the official reports that are available. The fact that multiple university studies and reports have differing theories and conclusions means we do not have enough concrete evidence to draw such conclusions.

The way the 2 buildings fell so orderly has disturbed me and caused me to think the performance may in actuality be more complex. I did not believe that the airplanes contained enough jet fuel to explode the way they did and then the remaining fuel could cause the collapse the way it did. The existence of the World Trade Tower 7 was news to me and I considered myself fairly well read and this was a surprise.

I am 100% convinced by the evidence that the towers were brought down by demolition only.

There is no way that jet fuel, burning in open air, melted steel beams and brought those buildings down.

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

If I presented the fabricated story or bad 'science' of the official 9/11 narrative and reports in any other context, I would likely never be hired by my clients again.

This is controlled demolition. There is no way that a 47 story building would fall into it's own foot print by natural forces. Support columins had to be taken out at the exact same time for it to fall straight down and not fall into other buildings.

I believe that the way the columns failed in wtc7 would not have caused an immediate collapse since there were many columns on one floor therefore if a single column fails it would not affect the stability of one floor really since there are other columns that would carry the loads.
