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 worked on The Twin Towers as a welder for Otis Elevator in 1970-71. The elevators ran inside the core columns and if someone wanted to plant explosives on those columns, all they had to do was ride on top of the elevator car and do their dirty work from there. As a welder I applied plenty of heat to those columns and I know that kerosene would not cause any damage at all. There was too much mass in the steel.
I worked for Otis Elevator for 3.5 years including a year from 1970-1971 working and welding on 'The Twin Towers'. So when I think of the core columns in those buildings and how massive those columns were, I have great difficulty buying the story of how jet fuel could weaken that steel to the point of collapse. Anyway, that fuel burned on impact and wasn't a factor. The general public doesn't realize that in those buildings that the core columns were 'terraced' and in a natural collapse, there would have been more resistance on the way down. The symmetrical collapse at free fall speed was impossible under normal conditions.

After watching numerous clips about what caused the collapse of the WTC buildings, I am convinced that those buildings did not come down as a result of two aircraft crashing into them. What I would like to know is who was involved in making this horrific event happen. I would also like to know what actually hit the Pentagon - why only a 65 foot gap when the wing span of a commercial airline exceeds one hundred feet and why was there no wreckage of the commercial aircraft that crashed in Pennsylvania? Only a hole in the ground and small aircraft fragments.

I first become skeptical about the official 9/11 narrative while watching the NOVA episode on the subject with my mentor, engineer E.

I started my working career as a piano technician. I went through the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Machinist Apprenticeship. Later got a BS in Mech E from Seattle University, then spent 4 years with Boeing as a Liaison engineer in the Wing Responsibility Center. Finally worked 16 years with US Navy as a Nuclear/Radiological engineer.
The NIST scenarios are not believable. The WTC 1 collapse is equivalent to crushing two US Nimitz class nuclear carriers in 10 seconds, given that they have about the same amount of structural steel. It's simply not possible. The NIST explanation for the WTC7 collapse is even more ludicrous. Their model shows massive failure at the back of the building, but somehow that doesn't distort the glass windows on the front of the building. I used Working Model 2D to model the effects of the conservation of momentum on WTC1. It showed that the upper stories would be significantly slowed by impact with the lower stories, adding several seconds to a free fall collapse, which takes it outside of the actual collapse time. Ergo, the lower floors were already falling when they were hit by the upper floors. Frankly, I'm extremely disappointed by the almost total lack of curiosity displayed by most of my working colleagues over the years. Lots of really smart guys who lacked the courage to ask a few rather obvious questions.

Only recently have I begun to examine the structural collapse of the buildings. Photos of the steel, evidence about how the buildings collapsed, the unexplainable collapse of WTC 7, evidence of thermite in the debris as well as several other red flags, are quite troubling indications of well planned and controlled demolition.

I have viewed many of the videos over the years.' The failure of the building in a near freefall manner should only happen if the entire structure fails near simultaneously. Even comparing it to the recent Surfside, FL apartment collapse where the floor layers ended up resting resting successively upon each other, one can see it was not a normal collapse. The non-symmetric damage would not result in a symmetric failure.

This is very obviously an inside job with the heavy use of explosives, as any engineer can tell, when he is able to confront such an evil project. Since Nero burned Rome. After my investigation of all the facts about the 3 buildings, there are no doubts: They were pulled down by high-tech professionals of the trade, this needed months of preparation, cooperation of the security services in the building and lots of manpower and money.

I've been on the list of AE for 9/11 Truth since its inception. I believe without a doubt that the 9/11 event was a planned event designed to arouse patriotism and gain public support for the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. I also suspect that building 7 was the command center for the controlled demolition of WTC towers 1 and 2. WTC 7 was always the smoking gun for me. There is no way that this building collapsed without weeks/months of previous preparation. 9/11 was a 'false flag' event; there is no question in my mind.

It didn't make sense to me that the buildings would fall at near Free-fall acceleration - straight down symmetrically. And Building 7 - right into it's footprint. If the Twin Towers collapsed they would have fallen over - not straight down due to the asymmetrical damage. This was a false flag attack - as a pretext for entry into middle east and central asia.

A fire always generates asymmetrical forces, and thus a torsion of the structures during the collapse. When I discovered the images WITHOUT the comment, I instinctively thought of a controlled demolition: same sequence of destruction from the inside, so as to not scatter the debris outside the parameters of the demolition zone.

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.

The freefall collapses of WTC 1, 2, and 7 must be impossible if only due to the entry of the planes, and in the case of 7, the absence of any impact at all. There is clear knowledge of the extremely robust structure in all 3 of them, and a pre-meditated scheme of internal explosions must have played a part. Further to that, the immediate vaporization of the structural cores must have involved some staggering level of explosives technology. The motives therefore seem heinous. In London last year, I witnessed the Grenfell Tower fire. It burnt visibly for at least 3 days with intense heat. 24 stories high, a year later it is still standing, with no deformation whatever.

From a scientific point of view, it is absolutely impossible that the 3 Towers collapsed because of fire. The explosion clouds, as well as the free fall, makes no sense at all to me. There must have been resistance by the massive core columns, almost solid steel columns in the lower floors. I want to see the truth investigated about 9/11, which had so many consequences for everybody in the world, even till this day. The people responsible must be found.

I am not familiar with high rises, but I have wide general knowledge of construction and standards.
All I ask for, as an architect, is an investigation that is also open to the possibility of explosives. In order to explain the destruction of those three buildings, it must review all the evidence, and all the testimonies of fire fighters, policemen, and all the people who where present that day.

There is no way any of the three buildings that collapsed on 11 Sept. 2001 did so without some kind of explosive or other device that removed all columns instantaneously. It is also clear that the steel could not have melted into fountains of molten steel merely with the airline fuel explosion, as temperatures would have been too low. This was evidenced by the free fall motion of each of the buildings, when they collapsed straight down as though a controlled demolition had occurred. There was also clear trajectories upwards of pulverised building materials caught in the footage of the event. This could not have occurred due to a pancake collapse theory. Indeed, had this happened, the remains of the buildings would not have disappeared. As I understand it, there is no case in history of a steel frame building collapsing completely due to fires.

It seems clear from the evidence that the 'official' version contains significantly erroneous information. The fuel load from the jets plus the fuel load from the building interiors was insufficient to result in melting of high strength structural steel. The building we impacted and damaged asymmetrically. The symmetrical collapse of both towers is improbable at the very least. Likewise, there is also no probable scenario for Building 7, given all evidence. The presence of chemical compounds indicating the presence of explosive materials used in demolition remains an unexplainable fact.

"I watched the planes crash on television in our workplace cafeteria. I, along with the other architects and the engineers, were shocked. We all stood around asking ""how was that possible?"" A major building to go down like that is what building demolition experts pray for and often enough, things go wrong. How could the twin towers collapse so 'cleanly' and so precisely? It defies engineering logic."

Occupation: Architect
Retired in 2005. BArch from University of Michigan. Had my own practice since 1976. My experience does include working on a 7 and 10 story high rise, both of steel frame.
I have believed from the beginning that this was a controlled demolition just watching it happen. I have been in the building and was familiar with the design by Yamasaki. I worked for architects who were key people in his firm. I knew that the building was supported primarily by the elevator core. Later I heard that men had been doing work in the elevator shafts for many weeks leading up to the disaster. From there, I read a number of articles on who may have been responsible.

The kinetic and explosive/combustive energy embodied in the jet aircraft involved is orders of magnitude smaller than that required to result in the actual extent and level of destruction that took place on 9/11.

I was completely terrified. I was living in Queens with my family when it went down. My intuitive thought from day one was that this was an inside job. I have friends who were working downtown at the time.

Son of an architect and grandson of engineer. All my family is full of architects and engineers, expert in structural analysis and construction myself. I studied as all we do in Spain lots of structural analysis. My final project with and A score was about a tower in the desert involved in with the experts in the field. In my career in Yaeger and Jordan and in other construction companies such as CEC and OCISA (old ACS). I have collaborated in many projects mainly in the field of construction and restoration.
A friend of mine and I elaborated a model that could replicate the official version of the events in the computer, and there is no way that a commercial airplane could completely destroy into dust these buildings. Many events in the history of US wars have been based on similar events that the official version could never justify until the truth is exposed too late for people to care about. Just an unfortunate event that the mass media accepted as it is and that the people care less and less to solve (so there is a problem with the official disclosure of events that must be solved no matter what). Just the truth and nothing else deserve the people.

The 'planes' going into the WTC were, in my opinion, used as missiles and the buildings imploded from controlled demolition. I had projects in the WTC. I know they were designed to withstand the impact of a plane. I knew the buildings very well.

I am a licensed architect and I have a 5 year Bachelor's Degree from an accredited University in the USA and over 30 years of experience working in the profession of architecture for new buildings, additions and alterations using many different structural methods.
From the videos, and from watching at a distance from NJ, and from experience watching planned implosions, the losses at the World Trade Center appear to be of a planned demolition.

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!

It is obvious the 3 towers were brought down by controlled demolition. Fire and even burning jet fuel will not produce enough heat to melt or weaken the steel structure to the point of failure and collapse.

The travesty of the 9/11/2001 attacks on the American citizens is an obvious conspiracy of the highest order involving multi-modes of conventional and advanced technology and multi-state actors to wage war physically and psychologically on the American public as well as simultaneously obfuscate huge transfers of wealth to the perpetrators. The failure of the US Government to conduct a competant and thorough investigation while offering explanations that defy the Laws of Physics, conceal relevant facts and shield the real terrorists adds insult to injury. The failure of the media to promote truth and tranparency further betrays the public trust. Truth and justice is due to the American people.

I believe that these buildings were damaged using explosives. There is no possibility to get this result another way.
