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've been aware that the official account of 9/11 was false since before AE 9/11 Truth was founded, but for professional reasons I was unable to sign until now. My guess is that for every AE that signs there are at least ten that don't for the same reason as me. I have the utmost admiration and respect for Richard Gage and everyone engaged in this effort. The evidence of controlled demolition for all three World Trade Center towers is overwhelming. In contrast, the official explanation relies on assertions but no evidence. The failure of the United States to investigate 9/11, the crime of the century, has placed a stain of corruption on our nation. Those public officials who continue to block a legitimate investigation of the events of 9/11 are complicit in the crime. Only the truth can set us free and restore integrity to our nation and government.

It seems that the when it comes to the collapse of the 3 towers the 9/11 truthers and the 9/11 debunkers are talking about different parts of the collapse. The debunkers focus on the local damage caused by the planes and fires. Their claims of local failure might have some validity but they make no attempt to connect the local failures with the mode of global building failure we all observed. The 9/11 truthers start with the global building failures and work backward to what might have caused it. This seems to me a better approach.

I find the official narrative of symmetrical structural collapse of WTC 1 & 2 as a consequence of being struck by airliners and subsequent contents fires, and the collapse of WTC 7 solely as a consequence of contents fires to be unpersuasive, nor does it account for the energy required to produce the blanket of extremely fine dust containing nanothermite which spread over lower Manhatten, nor does it account for the thousands of minute particles of human remains found on the rooftops of neighboring buildings. Much is yet to be revealed.

When you watch the videos and listen to firefighter testimony, it appears that the 3 buildings exploded. If there was a point of failure the building would have toppled asymmetrically and not at free fall speed as the supports below the fires would not have melted. Bones and dust were scattered many blocks away and a collapse does not support this but an explosion would explain it. Why not investigate how the terrorists planted the explosives in the building beforehand? Why not test the dust for thermite or nano-thermite? I would like to know the truth of what has happened. I have moved out of the United States and have converted my dollars to other currency until I can trust those in power again.

I have had broad experience in the planning, design & engineering of multi-story, braced-frame and moment-resisting steel frame structures including office towers and large scale institutional complexes.
After reviewing the data presented by the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth Organization and through my independent assessment of the data I have reviewed, and based on my 40+ years of professional experience, I have concluded that it would be nearly impossible for any of the principal World Trade Center Towers to collapse in the manner or in the recorded time frame as a result of any fire or explosion caused solely by the impact of terrorist-guided aircraft alone. Braced steel frame buildings simply don't collapse in a symmetrical manner with a uniform plume of debris in 102 or 56 minutes respectively with modern structural design standards and state-of-the-art life-safety systems which must be continuously inspected by local building inspectors based on ever increasing performance standards centered on human survival.

The official conspiracy theory describing the events of 11 September 2001 (9-11) defies logic from beginning to end. The NIST and FEMA investigation of the 3 WTC buildings' collapse defies logic and physics. If it looks, smells, and tastes like controlled demolition, it probably is controlled demolition.

How is it possible that such a massive structure with steel core, collapses by fire strictly vertically? How is it possible that material gets blasted out of the building so far if fire is the cause of the collapse? Why was there such a high temperature at the base of the building several days after 9/11? Why could comparable buildings resist fire over more time an did not collapse?

Given that the need for a new Pearl Harbor was announced by the crafters & signers of The Project for a New American Century in order to hasten their objectives TWO FULL YEARS before the 9/11 operation took place; I was not completely surprised when it happened. There is a huge old secret government WW2 bunker under Grand Central Terminal in NYC. It so happens has private rail line connecting into the rest of the subway system. Cheney uses this system regularly to this day. (as seen on the Discovery Channel) I believe it is the logical the staging area for the men and materiel needed to place the devices in WTC 1,2 & 7..... in my opinion.

So many things I have heard and seen about the destruction of the twin tower buildings, I did not understand. I thought my material science and building construction lectures set me up pretty well with all the principals if not all the mathematics. So how come the buildings just dropped like a stone? Why didn't they fall sideways? The planes did not hit dead centre! and they hit more columns on one side! Why does the mast on top of the building start collapsing before the top deck? Why does the top of the building just start breaking up straight away? Why does it not move as one piece above where the planes hit? Why was there so much dust, billowing clouds,surely not including asbestos? Then they fall down in less than 3 hours? (approx 80minutes and 120minutes) Whats wrong with the Fireproofing? What sort of fuel burns hotter than diesel or petrol also stored in these buildings? What destroys the fireproofing and melts steel, not just makes it sag. Why Molten Metal in the basements weeks after the collapse? Whelen the Wrecker men with boots too hot to wear? Despite continually flooding the basement the fires continue to burn without oxygen. Then a third 47 Storey WTC building fell, again dropping like a stone, despite only being hit by the main tower only on one side. In the Towering Inferno movie the building stays up, time for people to get out despite chaos. We as architects and engineers need to know how to stop the next terrorist plane knocking down one of our buildings.

I believe that the WTC 7 was a controlled demolition and that we must have a real investigation of all three high-rise collapses on September 11, 2001. I was particularly swayed by the evidence presented in the video showing uniform free fall collapse of WTC 7. This visual information is in stark contrast to the non-uniform fire and debris damage resulting from the north tower collapse.

I have practiced small-scale commercial and residential building and/or architecture for thirty five years. More recently, I have taught Architectural Design at our local Community College.
Everyone who has completed an accredited Architectural program has studied physics, properties of materials, and statics as minimum conditions of receiving a baccalaureate degree. Engineering students receive an even more rigorous education and training. As a licensed Architect or engineer we have received practical experience and relatively rigorous testing. If we can suspend our belief systems, and look at this event as a set of physical causes and effects, we will find much evidence to hypothesize causes other than those expressed by the Official reports of what occurred on September 11, 2001. For my part, I am expecting information at the level at which I was trained and tested in order to have the right and privilege to practice Architecture California.

My statement regarding the building collapses of 9/11 would be Why was the cover up allowed? The families of the victims were paid off in legal settlements without ever having the satisfaction of a full investigation of the events of 9/11...Why???

I think the main reason many people don't want to even consider the possibility (some say certainty) that the reasons for the WTC collapse is that it makes you consider the implications--the who/what/whys...and forces you to consider some ideas so horrible and evil that no one would want to face it. But reluctance is not a valid reason for not seeking the answer.

After viewing the information on AE9/11 Truth website, there should be no question, for anyone with the slightest knowledge of construction, that WTC 1, 2 and 7 were all controlled-demolitions. That fact alone indicates an inside job that unquestionably implicates many in our own government. Who else could orchestra such terrorism as all that happened on 9/11 and then so quickly mask it all by mass-hypnosis through the media? It's time to awaken America from their hypnosis to the truth of what happened on 9/11. - - - - Thank you Richard Gage and all others for taking the lead to organize us as a body to try to bring justice to those guilty of 1st degree mass-murder of all those who died that day.

I believe that there needs to be an independent investigation into the collapse of these buildings as there are many questions which are unanswered. The inconclusive results from the government investigation is not acceptable. I believe that especially building 7 is highly suspect of foul play as it came down in it's own footprint with only minor damage from the twin towers.

I graduated from the University of Idaho in 1997 with a degree in Architecture. I am 2/3 done with my state license exams. I have been involved with commercial projects for all of my architectural career. I have worked with many materials from wood, concrete, and steel. I have only experience in low rise buildings no higher then 3 stories.
I believe from my professional experience and from reviewing the footage that the building collapses, were not from fires or the plane impacts. From my studies of building collapse in college structural courses no building collapses that we studied collapsed such a uniform manner, and speed. There is only one way that this occurred and that is for internal explosions on the structural support columns similar to a demolition of a building would occur. There was not enough damage to building 7 to cause a structural collapses. This is my opinion on the collapses, a basic understanding of structural properties of steel and concrete, a knowledge of physics, and some common since have brought me to this conclusion.

Not necessarily disputing geo-social origins of: the hi-jacked plane(s), etc. My opinion is strictly limited to the physical collapse. - - In my opinion, the collapse(s) were possibly mechanically / explosively-assisted. By many accounts these buildings housed some very important tenants, which may keep very important information files, etc. There is the possibility that these buildings have been pre-wired to be demolished if security were ever to be breached in a major way. Anecdotaly speaking: remember the opening scenes of the original Mission Impossible?...this tape will self-destruct in 30 seconds. In my opinion the term pull it had to do with orders to destroy the properties due to un-avoidable security breaches that would ensue as a result of a myriad of persons going into previously secured areas of the buildings....thus the twin towers and the third building. This is my own opinion, I have never read this nor heard this anywhere. It is only my opinion/theory.

I think there are enough questions about the collapse of the Twin Towers and, in particular, Building 7, that further investigation is essential to know what really happened that day.

There is no scientific means that the crash of the jets and subsequent fires could have caused the structural failure and collapse of Tower 7 and Towers 1,2. If well observed in all collapses one can see demolition blasts sequences as the tower come down. Surely they must be thermite charges because they are the only type explosive that could generate the heat for structural steel failure and sequential collapse. Also when one sees the vaporization of human and material remains and the debris pike below glowed at 3000 degrees f with thermite traces, it is obvious it was a black ops operation.

On 9/11 I felt, no that cannot be, that is not right. I just saw 3 buildings destroyed by controlled demolition. It immediately made me perk up and pay attention. I began to wonder what this meant. after a week of news it became apparent this was much more than everyone was thinking. The witnesses were saying there were explosions / I thought the idea of pancaking was contradictory to the structure I knew the towers had. These buildings just could not free-fall without some kind of explosive help getting rid of key core columns.

I practiced architecture in Dallas, Texas as an architect-of-record for 18 years and carried architectural registrations in 21 states. 10 years ago I founded Archline CAD Services, which offers architectural CAD working drawings exclusively to architects. Our company has present and past architect-clients in 26 states, the US Virgin Islands and overseas. We have 8 architecturally trained and professionally qualified CAD production teams in 4 countries.
For years I have been curious about the real nature, not just of the collapses of the three Manhattan towers, but also the 9/11 terrorist attacks in Washington, DC and Pennsylvania. I have attended several AIA sponsored seminars on the subject, but none of them presented any probing questions about the disasters.

Seems to me that since explosives had been planted in WTC towers before 9/11 and the fact that the WTC 9/11 plane crashes weren't random (the towers were the target). It seems quite logical that some additional explosives were planted within the towers via insider or security breach to increase destructive impact of attack on towers.
