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 BS and MS degrees in Mechanical Engineering. I won a nationwide engineering competition during my senior design project for my BS degree. This offered me a paid research position at Oak Ridge National Laboratories to do my Master's thesis research, and I worked there for a year in their materials science division. I specialized in heat transfer and fluid mechanics for my thesis, as well as materials science. Graphite foam was the material I used for my research, because it was newly developed and has many applications due to its extremely high thermal diffusivity and conductivity.
9/11 was the most horrifying day in American history. To any engineer or physicist, it is also one of the most mysterious days in our history. On that day, the official story claims that small range office fires (less than 10% of the total floor area) made two 110-story skyscrapers burst into dust in 10 seconds each. At 5:20 pm the same day, WTC7 also collapsed. NIST noted that WTC7 fell at 'free fall acceleration' for 2.25 seconds of its collapse, which proves that that tower was demolished. For a building to go from being in static equilibrium one second to undergoing full free-fall acceleration into its own structure the next second, the interior structure of the building must be compromised before those members were forced to buckle due to being overloaded. The twin towers collapsed very fast as well, at over 80% the acceleration of gravity. Since the bottom sections of each tower were undamaged, and also built with thicker columns than the top section, one would expect the collapse to slow down and then stop as floors were being crushed (absorbing kinetic energy). However, this wasn't the case. If people continue to believe the lies we were told that day, our country is doomed to a future of tyranny.

I am very concerned that the government can present a story about what happened on 9-11 and everyone, including the press, just believes it because they say so, regardless of conflicting evidence or lack of supporting evidence for the official story. Something terribly bad happened on 9/11 and after. This country can not get back on the right course until the events of that day are THOROUGHLY and TRULY investigated and justice served for the 3000+ of my countrymen that died that day and those first responders who are still dying.

I studied engineering at Northern Illinois University for one year. I studied architecture at University of Illinois Navy Pier Chicago for a year. I then studied architecture at University of Illinois Champagne for three years, and became licensed without completing my undergrad degree. I earned a Master of Architecture and Urban Design at Washington University in St. Louis. I qualified for the program by virtue of professional equivalence, since I was a licensed architect working for Perkins & Will Architects in Chicago.

I graduated with a degree in construction management in in 1992. I also owned a contract glazing company for 10 years, T&M Architectural Metal & Glass. I was a contractor at the the WTC site from 2002 - 2003. My company installed the structural steel elevator tower on Vesey St. as well as the stainless steel enclosure panels around the elevator that would be installed.
I am well aware of testing, ul labels and fire retardent material that must be tested. I was a contractor and still am for a fabrication and installation company for glass and metal. It was virtually impossible for the the buildings to fall in a pancake theory due to fires on the 89th floor. I am sorry, but it does not take an engineer or a rocket scientist to draw this conclusion.

I have a Bachelors of Applied Science in civil engineering. I am an intelligent person with a solid educational foundation in the physical sciences.
The nature of the buildings' collapses alone raises so many questions from the perspective of scientific plausibility that I believe it justifies another better, sensible and comprehensive examination of how precisely the towers collapsed. Add to that additional doubts about so many other aspects of the 9/11 official narrative (from whether the President saw the first tower hit on TV to how terrorists could take such advantage of the surfeit of war games on that day), and I think there's no doubt we're in need of serious inquiry.

There are too many unanswered questions and the report of the investigation is below standard and does not address many of the questions that have been raised. A full review and detailed public inquiry is required. This has affected the entire world and it needs to be fully investigated in a professional manner and the criminals brought to justice. The USA Has lost significant credibility over this event, the investigation of which was a sham.

B.S. in Materials Engineering, Mississippi State University. I was an industrial engineer with Ferson Optics, Bauch & Lomb, Ocean Springs, MS. I was also a metallurgist with Materials Evaluation Lab, Baton Rouge, LA, which specialized in failure analysis. I have a Masters in Student Personnel, Mississippi State University and a Masters in Theological Studies, St. Meinrad School of Theology. I served as the Director of the Office for Social Justice, Diocese of Pueblo. I'm currently a Social Responsibility Minister, Church of the Epiphany, Louisville, KY
I believe all the official stories about what happened on 9/11, particularly with regard to the collapse of the three buildings, are patently false, evidenced by application of the facts. I am appalled that the all the metal beams and other locations of metal, including molten metal, did not go through thorough metallurgical testing and failure analysis. Plane crashes and other accidents or failure events receive full analysis, with no stone left unturned. Here we have the largest metallurgical disaster/attack in our nation's history and the analysis and investigation has been woefully inept. We may never know fully what happened because much of the evidence was destroyed rather quickly after the event. With what I do know, it appears as if these buildings collapsed with the assistance of timed demolition. A thorough independent official investigation has not happened yet and must happen in order to glean as much truth about this major event as possible. The integrity of our nation depends upon this and the responsibility to our nation's citizens demands it.

It would require very specific conditions for any structure to fail in a completely symmetrical fashion the way the buildings in New York failed on 9-11. Society as a whole needs an explanation for these events to prevent it from happening again.

I'm not sure exactly what happened, but what is extraordinarily apparent is that we have been lied to and there has been a cover up. Because this incident was used by the gov't to justify the violation of our inalienable rights as US citizens, through various legislation including the Patriot Act, transparency of the highest priority and integrity was necessary. Yet, the People of these United States of America have been left with more questions than answers, while we have witnessed blatant contradictions and discrepancies in official stories. The only thing that is clear is that our own government was hiding something then, and it's hiding something now. And this hidden something has been used in blatant contradiction and in opposition of the guaranteed LIBERTIES of the US Constitution which cannot be lost or stolen or given away under any circumstances. It is well past time for the truths surrounding these things to come to light. Personally, I no longer trust those in charge and would like to suggest that we set about a reestablishment of government as is our right under such corrupt conditions. Thank you.

Any person with ANY experience in building demolition could easily tell the order of detonation of the explosive charges and have a relatively good idea of the placement of the charges that brought down all 3 of the buildings in New York, NY on 9/11/2001. The evidence is overwhelming. The evidence is blatantly obvious. To ignore it reeks of criminal complicity.

Initial viewing of the devastation and loss was mind numbing and heartbreaking. However, watching video of the disaster a couple of years later, with special attention to WTC7, it became apparent that that building was brought down intentionally in my opinion and NOT by fire. Reviewing WTC 1&2 revealed indicators similar to WTC7. AND the fact that all three bldgs imploded near perfectly into themselves is like a dead giveaway showing the observer clue after clue. Fire alone couldn't bring down WTC7 and demo squibs are visible preceding the pancaking of both towers as well as enormousbooms emanating from the basements of the first tower prior to free fall of upper section.
