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 have been involved in the design and inspection of structures for approximately 30 years, including dams, bridges, roads, canals, pipelines, retaining walls, drainage structures, and other structures.
One of the many things that puts the official story in question for me is the matter of foreknowledge. How could so many people know that WTC buildings 1, 2, and 7 were going to come down when a fire has never caused a complete collapse of a building before. Also, it was well documented that the Twin Towers were designed to withstand a crash of a large passenger airplane.

I work out of the triangle area in the Raleigh, North Carolina. I also run a successful ebay business on the side.
I always thought that all 3 World Trade Center building collapses were due to a controlled demolition of some type. Watching AE911Truth analysis confirmed my suspicions. I was in New York City from Sept 12th through Sept 16th in 2001. I distinctly remember the smell of sulfur and the smell of magnesium in the air downtown through those days. I never put it all together on why those smells were present at the time. Watching AE911Truth confirmed for me the reason why I was smelling sulfur and magnesium in the air. A new and in depth non biased investigation needs to be held on why these hard target structures collapsed. The American people deserve to know the truth. What really happened that day and what really happened to those buildings?

Ottawa, ON, Canada
I`m a 25 year old engineer working for the Canadian Federal Government in Motor Vehicle Regulations. I have obtained my bachelor`s degree at Ottawa University in 2009. I have designed a steel structural chassis for an amphibious vehicle which was fully analyzed, designed, and documented with drawings for manufacturing of the parts.
The core column for the twin towers was a combination of massive steel rods and cement and were amongst the strongest steel columns in the world. A fire in open air could potentially have weakened the steel in the column at a single point on the 100-sotry buildings, although this is highly unlikely given the steel melting point is much higher than a fire by kerosene in open air. But the cement in the column would still have sustained the building upwards. The problem is the column could have flexed and broken at that point, but the building would have fallen sideways. The floors below were designed to sustain 10 times the weight of all floors above at full capacity. The only way the column could have collapsed upon itself is if it was brought to malleability from top to bottom simultaneously, including the skeleton structural steel rods. But this was not the case. And even if it was, all the floors, walls, and other structural components would have created resistance and the collapse would have been slow. What the evidence shows is that they collapse at free fall speed minus air resistance. This is only achievable in a controlled demolition which removes the matter with explosives before the above floors reach the ones below. This is not to mention building 7. You don`t need expertise to break that one down.

It was the discovery of molten steel in the tub that made me realize there was something really wrong about the MSM coverage of the Towers. The discovery of intergranular melting has so far not been explained, officially. Building 7 collapse looks like a demolition to me, and if nothing else happens, this should be intensively re-investigated by an independent team of architects and engineers.

Seen one false flag; seen em all.
All statements of the press were obviously hand fed from the start. As an auto mechanic and welder, I know that the temperatures inside the building were no 15 to 20 thousand degrees as reported. Burning fuel inside a cylinder only reaches about 1200 to 1500 degrees. Steel does not fail at such temperatures, otherwise internal combustion engines would be impossible to operate. Having worked at Windows on the World, I know that 20 to 50 thousand workers do not present themselves in the towers at that hour of the morning as reported by the press. These assertions by the press were repeated across all channels of broadcasting and print, and could only have come from a central propaganda feed.

Show me the evidence. Where is the remains of the air craft that we are told hit the Pentagon or crashed into a field? Somewhere beneath the piles of debris from the World Trade Center should have been mangled and melted fuselages and engines, not just the scattered scraps. Why was the removal of the WTC debris rushed to prevent a careful forensic study? Too many questions remain about the incidences and conflicting interpretations that the topic justifies a transparent review.

Ever since I first saw the failure, I felt something was wrong. The pancaking of the slabs as they fell struck me as the kind of failure one might see in a concrete structure building with the columns acting as shear punches at each respective failure. I was amazed when I was informed it was a steel building. Since then, I have learned of the mode of failure of WTC 7 and the temperature of burning jet fuel vs. resistance of steel to such temperatures. Something is just not right.

I am a retired Electronic Design Specialist and Computer Specialist, 53 years old, male. At my work, I used computers in design of circuits and PC boards. I also use them to consider stress forces, material suitability and sizes for construction of many types of machinery, small buildings and appropriate design factors. These are mostly small items, not large buildings, but I understand the concept behind the large building structural design. I am American, Constitutionalist, Free Man, anti-communist, Prolife, Born again Christian and willing to live for my country!
I believe that the buildings were intentionally brought down by pre-planted explosives and that the public was deceived by the use of non commercial jets. Building #7 is the Achilles heel, where you can here the count down to raze it, but it was not hit by any jet or missile. Also the Pentagon was not hit by a 767 or 757; there is just not enough of a hole in the building. I believe that it was a small cruise missile or other type of weapon.

I'm an American citizen who since the Kennedy Assassination, has not trusted the Official narrative on many different investigations. Many including the JFK Assassination were concluded without ever interviewing eye witnesses, including Medical Professionals. Thus it is my opinion that a full third party investigation needs to be done with full access to any pertinent person, place or thing which may be vital to an accurate investigation being completed.
I do not believe the evidence fits the narrative.

The whole thing just doesn't sit right. From what I have researched. I have come to the conclusion that it was all a made up tragedy to make a reason to go to war. It was all orchestrated by our own government. Our own government maliciously murdered thousands of innocent Americans for was profiteering. Lining their own pockets with the blood of the American people.

I knew we were at war the moment the reports came in that the first Tower was hit. Confirmed when Second Tower was hit. No one else would believe me. I just didn’t know that the perpetrator was from inside our own country. Watched all kinds of reports. Felt many of the same feelings the rest of the country was experiencing. But was extremely concerned about the people that were forced back inside the buildings to return to work as usual. They KNEW instinctively they needed to get out, and many of us knew too.We were told the building was fortified in special ways, to prevent such a disaster from happening..I knew there was something wrong with the heat of the fire, when requests were going out they needed new footwear for Firemen who were digging through rubble and soles were disintegrating after only short periods of standing in it. Not normal intensity fire!I was concerned for the quality of the air for all concerned-even the city at large. Now look at all the Firefighters and first responders that have contracted Ca and succumbed to their exposure of such toxic particulates, look at the city residents that have succumbed, as well!The buildings came down in a fashion just like controlled demolition. All orchestrated, one floor upon another, everything down and nothing really toppling over.News reported that WTC7 had fallen and yet, as she spoke, there was the building over her left shoulder, still standing. Moments later it fell, also straight down. She had been given her script, and she read it perfectly. It just hadn’t happened yet. WTC7 hadn’t even been hit! Small fires in a building that housed important documents.With everything not seeming right, including the response of our President, reading the book to school children, I started to research.From the timing of the insurance that was taken out and the beneficiaries of that insurance, to the company that had done work not only on the floors of the WTC that were “hit” but also on the Pentagon, the same company that was the cleanup crew and thus keeper of “all the valuable evidence”, the special military operations that were going on that day in the air airspace, planes that were allowed to fly when all others had been grounded, insurances that didn’t want to pay for injuries incurred years later. All of this stinks. There is more than enough evidences to warrant an thorough probative inspection into everything about 9/11. I am just a simple individual, and I can see something stinks to high Heaven. I can only imagine what engineers must be saying about this fiasco of a crime. Everyday men and women should be fearful of working in tall-structured buildings, and crossing over or under huge bridges, if this is the best we can expect. I trust engineers. We all do. With our lives and the lives of our family members. We need an official re-examination of all the things that went wrong on this day, to create such a perfect storm of devastation and loss of life. May God help us find & report the Truth. Thank you for this opportunity and for your ear.
