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.

My Education consists of a 4 year degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Limerick in Ireland. As part of my degree I was fortunate enough to spend a semester at Georgia Institute of Technology, on scholarship, as one of the highest achieving students at my home university at that time. I currently operate as a Technical Consultant, primarily to the Aviation Leasing & Fleet Management industry.
I have for many years not been convinced that the cause of collapse of all three trade centers in New York, nor the wreckage sites at the Pentagon & Pennsylvania, are the result of impact by commercial aircraft. I fully believe the overwhelming evidence contradicts the official narrative offered in the 9/11 official report, and I wish to show my support in demanding a non-biased, independent investigation as to the probable causes of destruction, as the people of the USA, and the world, deserve to know.

Michael DiMercurio, P.E., has over twenty-five years of project management and claims experience in the engineering and construction industry. Mr. DiMercurio has worked around the world on a wide variety of projects and is an experienced construction project manager, project controls expert and construction contracts expert in difficult negotiations with construction contractors and owners in adverse situations. Mr. DiMercurio's projects have included combined cycle power, circulating fluidized bed coal power, chemical process plants, cryogenic gas plants, commercial facilities and entertainment projects in both union and non-union environments. As a construction claims expert, Mr. DiMercurio has analyzed a wide variety of construction projects involving delay, damage claims, change orders, and project management issues. Mr. DiMercurio has extensive experience in owner claim defense, managing contractor invoice payment issues, backcharges to contractors, and counterclaim assertion to contractors. On the contractor's side, Mr. DiMercurio has asserted and recovered millions of dollars in claims for contractors suffering inefficiencies, hindrances, delays, poor coordination and defective engineering. Mr. DiMercurio was an honors graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and MIT, and as a Navy nuclear operator, has both process plant operations and nuclear and fossil construction experience. DiMercurio is author of nine naval fiction books including VERTICAL DIVE and EMERGENCY DEEP.
The towers were designed to be hit by fully loaded jets. Would the designers be so negligent as to forget that those jets would be loaded out with fuel? Why have other steel skyscrapers burned, some over a dozen stories for hours and not collapsed? Why did the towers fall at free-fall speed? Why were the steel remains of the columns at bedrock melted?

Ever since my studies of architecture, my professors and all professional literature have stated that STEEL BUILDINGS with proper fire safety WILL NOT BURN DOWN. Not even after a week. The day of 9/11, I was working on an Army base in Germany and was immediatly suspicious about the official narrative on TV. Not only the construction details did not make sense, but also all of the MILITARY PROCEDURES that supposedly didn't work that day, it was just way too much. I hoped that an investigation would clarify the events after the dust settled, but only inconclusive nonsense got published. Anybody with open eyes and basic knowledge about construction and demolition knows that buildings DO NOT COME DOWN IN FREE FALL, except with intensive preparation and installation of explosives at the exact spots. Otherwise, the building will incline to some side and cause major destruction. What was seen at 9/11 in NYC is in no way possible as officially declared. Only a real investigation of ALL EVIDENCE will bring the truth. It is time to get this truth to light!

I received a BS in Architectural Engineering from the University of Wyoming in '98 and worked as a Consulting Mechanical Engineer for 5 years after.
After reviewing the data, photos, video accounts, statements from first responders, explanation for the collapse, etc. I believe that the FEMA explanation is inaccurate and requires further investigation. The upper floors affected by the impact could have caused structural failure, but this does not explain the complete and total failure of the supporting structure of the floors below. The explanation of the fire from the impact and jet fuel causing the total and complete failure of the supporting structures is false due to the relatively low temperatures of the fires and the massive amounts of structural steel at the core of the building. The pancake theory of collapse would support the evidence of several of the lower floors at ground zero. There was no evidence of anything that resembled a floor structure, nor any concrete pieces that were bigger than the size of a fist. This is evidence that would support the use of explosives instead of a natural building collapse due to upper level failure and subsequent gravitational impact.

Worked a number of years in Highway Design, followed by several more years in Metals Engineering, providing quality assurance for structural steel used in NYS bridges, and analyzing and designing repairs for deteriorated and otherwise damaged metal bridges.
The speed at which the buildings fell implied that the central cores provided virtually no vertical resistance at any point during the collapses. When the live television commenter stated that there must have been tons of explosives on site to cause such a collapse, i found myself in agreement and assumed it would all come out during the investigation. Combined with the reports of molten metal, inexplicably high temperatures recorded even by satellite, rapid removal and destruction of the structural evidence, the finding of tiny fragments of human bone thrown laterally from the structures, the missing pentagon trillions on 9/10; I am very concerned about the kind of world we are leaving to the next generations. 9/11 and the ensuing cover up is a big part of that concern.

Building 7 collapsed at free-fall acceleration. It was far from the North and South Towers so it should have remained structurally sound. We need to explore why it fell. We need to explore why NORAD was unable to intercept any of the four airplanes. We need to explore the evidence that thermite was found in the WTC dust. 911 was the reason for going to war. We are still at war because of 911 so we need to know the truth.

Sinai health monitoring program. Much to the dismay of the Bush crime family, I ain't dead yet! Disclaimer: I am not an architect or a building engineer.
It's glaringly obvious that the 9/11 Commission Report was a white-wash. I also received my first lessons on the 9/11 cover-up by David Ray Griffin. I wasn't hip to the whole explosives theory though UNTIL I watched the power-point presentation and the other videos of Mr. Gage on this site. I couldn't get over the magnitude of such an operation (placing thousands of charges) but, as Mr. Gage points out, you have to look at the evidence FIRST. I witnessed lateral ejections of metal and glass at the beginning of collapse but, it didn't send up any flags at the time because I'm not a C.D. expert.

As a former firefighter, in my research there has never been a reinforced steel building that has collapsed due to fire. The collapse of WTC Buildings with a free fall speed of gravity defies the physics of building collapse due to weakening of structural elements. WTC 7 collapse cannot be related to WTC 1 and 2 collapses... there is absolutely no way any physics can support that. WTC 7 followed the book on structural demolition.

I always wondered why Building Seven collapsed and how, and found it odd that it was not hit by a plane yet collapsed in the manner it did. The fact that Building Seven held, from what I have heard, a lot of highly sensitive government paperwork, it all seems a little too coincidental to me. It is my belief that this investigation needs to be reopened and I feel my government has let me down if they refuse to follow up on the new evidence.

I am considering reapplying to pick up my career aspirations where I left off.
The collapse of all three WTCs is totally inconsistent with a fire induced progressive collapse. For one, no steel framed structure in history has ever collapsed primarily due to fire. For another, progressive collapse has never afflicted any fully complete building. In addition, there is the fact that the Twin Towers collapsed at roughly 2/3rds of free fall acceleration, which means that the lower foundations offered very little resistance to the 'upper block' which was supposedly crushing them down! The NIST investigation into WTC 7 was completely fraudulent. Among a few of the many deceptions strung throughout their report was the undisclosed fact that they lied about the fire temperatures, thermal expansion of concrete, thermal conductivity of steel, removed sheer studs, and added combustible fuel loads on floors where the initial failures took place in their model. In addition, they ignored a staggering number of NFPA 921 protocols regarding the analysis of fire and explosion incidents.

Building 7 is the smoking gun to the truth we seek - and with the hundreds of eyewitness testimony of explosions, molten steel, etc. there is more than enough evidence to justify a real scientific investigation into the true cause of structural failure in all three buildings. We the people are the grease in the cogs of this nation and it is our duty, right and responsibility to demand answers.

As an investment research analyst, I know full well that it is critically important to get to the right facts, however unwelcoming and inconvenient those facts are. Without rigorous drill down on facts and reality, is a sure way to ultimately perform sub-optimally. Effective investment strategies are based on a broad understanding of the world and the reality it reflects.
The evidence is very strong that all three WTC buildings were destroyed by well-planned military-grade explosive. An independent investigation must be carried out. The truth will eventually be known, however long it takes.

I am a genuine seeker of the truth and am aware that world events as reported by international media are grossly inaccurate and often times absolutely false. I consider the world reports of the events of 9/11 and the destruction of the Twin Towers as such, and believe the truth and the real events were covered up.
I sincerely believe that the world's media did not accurately or truthfully inform the people of the United States of America and the world about the real events of 9/11 and the destruction of the Twin Towers. I believe that this is in part because the media giants are owned and/or run and controlled by certain of those who do not want the public to know the truth, but rather to cause fear and mass confusion in the world by blaming the events of 9/11 and other events in the world on terrorists who supposedly hate freedom and will do anything in their power including suicide to prevent such freedoms. I also believe that 9/11 and the destruction of the Twin Towers and the great and tragic loss of human lives was planned and caused by those in powerful positions who wish to eventually attain control and domination of our world.

The speed at which the buildings fell is not possible without other forces acting upon and within the buildings. My structural experience and understanding of construction makes it very difficult to accept the official explanations. The live video of eye witnesses experiences of multiple explosions and other anomalies that don't add up to the open minded individual. This investigation needs more attention and I will do what I can to promote the spread of this information.

Former member of the Royal Air Force, working on air defense radars. I also acted as a ministry of defense instructor, covering the field of airborne radio, radar and navigation systems. All my life I have maintained a broad overview of all things engineering.
On the day of 911, I was working out in the field, around the Manchester area. The only information I had available was via FM radio and after the first aircraft hit, like everybody else, I thought it to be a dreadful accident. When we heard of the second strike we all knew different. I was attending my final call of the day when the collapse of the first tower was reported, followed an hour later by the second. Now one of the things that always struck me about those buildings, was how slender they were compared to their bases. I knew that there had to be some massive internal structure to support not just the mass of the buildings but also the windage. So I, like most other people I spoke to, who were away from TV screens, imagined them lying like demolished pylons across Manhattan. I'll let you guess my reaction, when I was able to watch the collapses when I got home. It ran something like No ..............Way!!

The NIST report indicates there was no evidence or testimony indicating an explosion or incendiaries when in fact thermite and thermate were found in the debris, thermal imaging after the collapse indicated temperatures greater than 1,000 degrees fahrenheit in the debris and there were numerous videotaped descriptions of explosions from eyewitnesses on the day of the event. For those reasons, I believe respect for those who died that day - and for the citizenry of this country as a whole - requires us to let the sun shine on all the facts that can be and have been discovered, and that truth and reconciliation proceed, wherever it may lead.

In 9/11 there are a couple pf givens that underpin just where we are today. 1. In 1945 a B25 bomber hit the Empire State building, without structural failure 2. The WTC design was incorporeal of this incident to ensure that the then aircraft in common usage striking the any WTC building would not structurally fail if hit by one of these aircraft. 3. Apparently the WTC did fail and a massive failure was seen by the world om 9/11. Given these (alleged) catastrophic structural engineering design failures in WTC complex, what changes to the USA building/structural engineering code have been insisted upon by the US Institute of Engineers (or its equivalent) prior to any further vertical steel reinforced structure commencement post 9/11, including these building's replacements? Further, if any recommendations made due to structural failure and now reflected in legislated building/engineering codes, upon what evidence were the changes made? if any? Just pondering... Jim

Obviously WTC7 is a smoking gun. Silverstein has admitted to pull the building. At a time of such calamity why would anyone in their right mind worry to tamper with evidence when first priority should have been to rescue victims. I am also aware of the renovations due to asbestos the buildings were scheduled to undergo. I have no doubt this was a manufactured event to pursue political agenda.

I am shocked and dismayed that these buildings could have been pre-planned to blow. I have watched demonstrations of buildings implode on themselves when a building was unsafe to keep open. I have also watched Myth Busters and know how well thermite goes through metal. I am concerned that we need another investigation and follow up on what was found.

There is plenty of evidence to show there needs to be further investigation.
