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.

Occupation: Petroleum Engineer
I graduated with Civil and Environmental Engineering degrees from University of Central Florida. I then worked in a motor oil blending and bottling facility while pursing my M.S. in Environmental Engineering. I did graduate, but decided the field was not for me, so went on to receive an M.S. in Petroleum Engineering from Texas Tech in 2014. I went to work for Schlumberger and had a good 5 1/2 years as a Field Engineer, Technical Sales and In-House Engineer for one of our clients. I loved the job, but fell victim to the most recent round of layoffs. My somewhat wide range of Engineering studies, including shaped charges used in perforating well casings, allow me to understand the great material AE911 truth is uncovering.
I find it very sad the country I grew up thinking as fair and just would produce such a shame of an investigation, and deceive the general public using a computer model. The destruction of evidence, filibustering of investigation requests, and guarding model inputs is obviously the product of corruption. Not to mention the collapse physics are just ridiculous to attribute to fire damage. We need to find out how such a catastrophic failure could occur. We paid in blood, and gained nothing. All data from the collapses needs to be shared openly if we are to be truly free.

I have a Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of British Columbia, Canada and eleven years of professional experience. Currently I am a senior engineer for a Danish company that makes wind turbine blades. I am part of the Composite Mechanics group that is responsible for determining and documenting the mechanical properties of the materials and substructures that are used in the blades. I am also currently attending a masters level fracture mechanics course at DTU (Danish Technical University) in order to become more specialized within my field. Previously I have worked in Vancouver, Canada with hydrogen fuels and their cooling and exhaust gas dilution systems and in Melbourne, Australia as an engineer designing industrial wheels and castors.
From my understanding of solid mechanics, I don't see how a steel constructed skyscraper can collapse under it's own weight at near free fall speed within it's own footprint. Steel is a ductile material and a space frame construction that is overloaded in compression will bend, buckle and twist, but will remain essentially as one structure. In my opinion, the failure mode observed for the twin towers can only be explained by a series of controlled explosions.

Occupation: Wireless Electronics
My first love was Architecture, and had hours of training and certificates for Mechanical Drawing and CAD from the 1980s, as well as training and certificates for Audio Engineering and Studio Maintenance, and worked since High School in Pro Sound and Audio Visual industries. Upon completion of my Associate degree in Electronics, I went to work for over a decade in Wireless Communications and Networks Manufacturing.
My first undergraduate program of study was Architecture in the mid-1980s with the University of West Virginia, but switched to Drafting with Carver Career Center in Charleston. Ironically, my first two areas of intense personal study were outrigger skyscrapers (WTC Towers) and underground construction (Bunkers). As I recall, the history of the term pancake goes back to the 1940s or 1950s in relation to SEISMIC studies of the performance of concrete and reinforced concrete buildings and was a descriptive term of the visible RESULT of collapses, NOT a MODE OF FAILURE. I knew then that the first explanation was pure propaganda, not scientific inquiry, and likely originated from some uninformed military source, not an educated civilian expert; especially since the means of destruction were different between the Towers and Building 7. The two WTC Towers were controlled explosions and WTC 7 was a classic implosion. In short, the evidence at hand convinced me that WTC 7 was a defacto standard controlled demolition, but that the towers were experimental silo demolitions; the most damning evidence being that the second tower struck was the first to fall in less than an hour. These [outrigger] skyscrapers are built to share the load between their cores and external frames, and any mode of total failure or progressive collapse begins with destroying both the core and frame on more than one side of either tower, and had the catalyst been any combination of plane crashes and office fires exclusively it would have taken several days to sufficiently weaken the towers (we know it wasn't plane crashes alone since the towers absorbed the crash inertias and redistributed their structural loads). Instead it was mere minutes. Some type of explosives and accelerants must have been used to account for the additional energies needed to trigger and to MAINTAIN the silo type collapses of the WTC towers. Lastly, it's funny how investigators who are Architects or Engineers are derided as not being Demolition Experts, but Demolition Experts with civilian or military experience are dismissed as not being Engineering or Architectural Ph.D.s (among internet message board discussions and other venues). The red-herring being that it assumed that the real perpetrators would have had to have had extensive knowledge of both fields to pull off these demolitions; the reality being that the 19 alleged hijackers had neither. Two planes, three different collapses. A child can do that math.

The brilliant Part III of David Chandler's NIST Finally Admits Free Fall is all one needs to understand that explosives caused the WTC collapses. The evidence for controlled demolition is overwhelming, of course, but it is the weak official explanations and non-sensical debunker counter-arguments that truly seal the deal for me. The NIST admission video is therefore qualitatively superior to all other videos that voice only the 9/11 truth movement side. In admitting free-fall NIST admits that their fire-based collapse hypothesis is wrong and that their report is a scientific fraud. Previous demonstrated shortcomings of their investigation arguably amounted to simple negligence. Not investigating reports of thermite, molten metal, and collapse preknowledge stand out here. But in admitting free-fall NIST has conjured up a contradiction within their conclusions that cannot be argued away. All that remains now is to get a critical mass of people to view the free-fall videos, as well as the others. Our strongest influence is among our friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Make it a practice to educate at least one new person per week from these groups. Do this in parallel with working your politicians and news media and we will eventually get a real investigation.

These buildings were designed to withstand the impact of heavy aircraft like the planes that hit them. No steel framed building has ever suffered complete collapse, even from fires that burned much longer and hotter than at the WTC. I believe the modelling of the structural elements and failure mechanisms as done for NIST contains unrealistic loading factors and only through those factors are NIST able to show a total collapse happening.

Buildings do not spontaneously pulverize from fires, otherwise we would never need demolition experts to carefully bring down buildings -- why should that profession exist if a simple match will do the job to bring down steel framed skyscrapers? That's a tongue-in-cheek question, but it highlights a serious point: Those buildings had assistance to fall on 9/11. We should all demand an inquiry to uncover the details, culprits, and to initiate prosecution for those criminal culprits who must be brought to justice.

Beyond a doubt, the WTC buildings were a highly professional controlled demolition job. It must have taken about 6-8 weeks of preparation. The evidence collected and the design simulation calculations show that US government and NIST offered explanations that do not hold water. What is astonishing and totally humiliating is the fact that the government thought the world was full of morons, and that they could pull this off by saying utter nonsense like jet fuel caused the collapses.

I'm studying for my second bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and my master's in experimental physics and so I think I have enough technical background to form a scientifically sound opinion on the events of 9/11.
It is physically impossible for the Twin Towers and WTC 7 to have collapsed at near free-fall acceleration without the aid of a source of extra energy, such as that from explosives. In addition, the damage to the Pentagon was too small to have been made by a Boeing 757.

Not only WTC7's, but also WTC1 and WTC2's collapses need to be honestly investigated. 1. Fires at similar skyscrapers in other countries did not lead to the collapses of the 9/11 styles at free fall speed. 2. Even if we concede that WTC1-2 fire did cause the steel support structure to weaken at 80-90 floors, the weight of the upper part of the building could not cause the collapse as the 0-80-floor part had always stood enduring the weight of the upper part. The hypothetic weakening could only occur gradually, and the upper part would have fallen off the building without causing the whole building to collapse.

My background is in physics. I have a thorough understanding of the physical laws governing motion and what is and is not possible.
There are only two possible explanations for how the towers fell on 9/11. 1) Explosives were used to remove the support structure. 2) The laws of physics ceased to apply within the buildings on that day. Since number 2 is impossible, that leaves 1 as the only explanation.

With my current education focusing in rudimentary understanding of structural integrity, the WTC buildings indeed succumbed to collapse as a result of some kind of inter-structural damage other than the airliner jets.

In my amateur, but rather educated opinion, there's no way the Towers collapsed without the aid of explosives...coincidences happen, but not 10 of them all occurring in the same moment, which is what it took to bring down a structurally sound building built with the intent to survive a plane hit. Pools of molten steel is evidence of high intensity explosives. And that's not even counting the numerous studies done on the WTC dust which shows high levels of manganese and thermate.....the first lowers the melting point of steel by 500 degrees and the 2nd flash boils metal to 4500 degrees. This alone is proof to me that someone (not terrorists) orchestrated a timed, well planned, and deliberate demolition of those Towers. At some point, someone, or some group, must be held accountable for the senseless murder of nearly 3000 American citizens, and the invocation of their death to murder nearly a million abroad. The nation must know the truth, and those responsible, deserve to pay for their inequities against humanity.

Studied for 3 years for a degree in Physics which I believe provides the experience and knowledge to make a valued judgment regarding the 9//11 conspiracy.
From the evidence I have seen, such as explosions seen and heard by witnesses, as well as the very uniform way they fell, it is not possible to melt steel at the temperature at which kerosene burns, so another substance such as Thermite must have been used. Also where are the black boxes from the planes? Never in the history of flight has a black box not been recovered, yet mysteriously neither have ever been found.

You can ignore my signature because I am not a US citizen. However, if there will not be a proper investigation of 9/11, I will inform everybody I know about the rational scientific arguments that point to the use of thermite explosives.
It is physically impossible for the WTC Towers to have collapsed due to the airplanes. The amount of Energy that has come free from the fall, could never have come from an airplane crashing in to them. A lot of indications point to the use of thermite, which would explain the amount of energy that came free, the melting of the structure and the presence of all the metals in the dust and the rubble... So why would anyone put these explosives there while terrorists flew into those buildings?

It is rather clear to me after reviewing the evidence presented by this organization and countless others that the official account of the 9/11 event by the American establishment (government, media) is physically impossible. This has even been noted by NIST itself when admitting to the free fall of the WTC 7 building, while still refusing to address the fact that it would take explosives loaded on the lower support columns to achieve this free fall speed. The public needs to bring this issue to the forefront of mainstream awareness and the opinions of verified professionals and qualified individuals needs to be taken seriously and not ignored.

At first, and without much thought, I accepted the collapse of the two main buildings as possible if much of the fuel had fallen down through the center cores and a substantial portion of the main supports were somehow weakened. But the collapse of Building 7 made no sense. Now, having listened to various theories and analysis, including: 1) audio analysis in which evenly-timed explosions can be heard for no explainable reason, 2) evidence that thermite or thermate was found in the ruins, 3) videos that shows puffs of smoke exiting the building below the critical fire zones, 4) and analysis that explains why nothing in the buildings could cause enough heat to melt or substantially weaken the supporting steel girders, I'm baffled. There seems to be no logical reason why the buildings collapsed other than by controlled implosion, and that makes no sense either unless there is a shadow government that exists outside the government we supposedly control acting in its own interests.

I have no formal engineering or architectural education. I have, however, had numerous college physics courses and i believe that I have a fundamental understanding of the forces acting on a building when it collapses. I have a degree from Eastern Connecticut State University where I graduated Magna Cum Laude. I have also taken Physics 1&2 at the University of Connecticut.
I know of no other structural fire in the history of steel construction that have catastrophically failed due to a structural fire. I know that the buildings fell at near free fall speeds, in an untypical symmetrical fashion. Jet fuel does not burn hot enough to melt steel. Building number 7 was never impacted and had minimal fire on several floors, then v-ed and fell like you would expect to see during a controlled demolition. Also, there is footage of firefighters and police officers telling cameramen to move back because the building was going to come down.

After working for two years I returned to the University Physics Dept. and obtained a BS degree. No courses on Semiconductors were offered at the time but the job I got was primarily designing and developing Large Power Silicon Devices. The largest was a 4,ooo,ooo watt SCR (silicon control rectifier) or switch.
I had a hard time believing that the airplanes crashing into the twin towers could cause the amount of damage that occurred but when I saw the film of building #7 going down I became convinced that it was a planned demolition. This conviction increased my suspicion about the cause of the excessive damage to the twin towers.

Although I am not a scientist or architect, I am an intellect with full capacity to reason.
I keep waiting, hoping, for Americans to wake up. Questioning our own government is fearful when it shouldn't be. It is our right. Yet, the nation watched as three buildings fell in controlled demolition manner and we continue to allow our government to deceive us.

On some videos of WTC 1 and 2 collapse one can see core columns still standing in clouds of dust while the building surrounding them is already gone. In my mind they needed some core columns to stabilize the straight downward movement of the towers to prevent major damage of the buildings surrounding the WTC towers. The remaining core columns are than brought down a few second later. There is no technical evidence to support the official story of WTC collapses, the official story does not make any sense except for the political agenda. I will give back my degree in physics and engineering if the official story is true.

Received B.Sc. in Physics at the University of Winnipeg, Canada. Spent two years in Master's program in Theoretical Physics at the University of Waterloo, Canada. Dropped out to pursue other interests in software development. Founded a software start up.
The free-fall speed of a collapse is suspicious. Visually it is strikingly similar to controlled demolition. Big media was talking about computer models used by an investigation, and, from my experience with computer models, they can be misleading, or fudged whichever way one wants. If computer models were used by investigation, these must be open sourced, so that (a) it can actually be run on my computer to at least validate that there is a model that supports official claims, and (b) to see what sort of actual computational paths are used, what assumptions are present, what physics is modeled, and whether it is real.

I obtained a double B.A. in Biology and Chemistry from IU (1982), and joined Phi Beta Kappa. I went to the IU School of Medicine, but left voluntarily in my junior year (could not take lack of sleep). I obtained an M.S. in Secondary Education from IU (1987) and have taught all levels of Math and Science, including Physics, since that time. I currently teach Chemistry and Anatomy/Physiology at Butler Tech, a highly-respected Career Technical center.
While not an architect or engineer, my knowledge of Physics leaves me no doubt that the AE911truth analysis is completely correct. To me, there can be no doubt whatsoever (unless Congress had repealed certain laws of Physics that day) that all three buildings were skillfully wired for controlled demolition beforehand, and were purposefully imploded via these explosive devices on 9/11. Other than your expert analysis and our own eyesight and common sense, the most damning evidence came from Larry Silverstein, the owner of the WTC complex, who said from London on 9/11 that, due to the fire, they might have to pull, i.e. implode Building 7. Americans must know the truth!

Presently I only hold an Associates Degree with studies in physics and a publication. My directed research at UCF included Micro-Raman Spectroscopy and Non-Linear Stochastics.
After viewing the buildings collapse for the ninth time that day, one of my first responses was that the Buildings had collapsed too quickly. It was not until Dr. Jones published his article online in 2004 that I finally had some reliable conjecture to support that hunch. When I later did some of my own calculations was I truly convinced that indeed the controlled demolitions conjecture was more reliable. Ever since I have put forth the effort to relay the information to anyone willing to examine the evidences. Unfortunately Shopenhauer's statement regarding truth has proven to be correct. So far we still seem to be around step two.

The official account is not physically beleviable. The buildings were designed to withstand impact of large aircraft and the fires were not catastrophic or capable of heating the structural steel sufficiently to cause failure.

My PhD is in Biophysics. I have extensive experience in Biomedical research involving Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and molecular structure. I have since retrained as an acupuncturist and now work mostly in health care. However, I am still employed part time as an NMR spectroscopist at the University of Florida Chemistry department.
I have reviewed some of the scholarly articles and it seems that many questions as to the cause of the WTC destruction remain unanswered. A re-opening of the investigation is warranted given the nature of the scientific data which raise many questions.

I have a physics degree and have been studying the 9/11 documentaries very closely for a couple years now. I think that the evidence of a government conspiracy is overwhelming. It's sad that most Americans don't have the attention span to do their own research about this...
I have to say that it is more than obvious that it is what you guys say it is. I used to think it was all conspiracy and now (after watching hundreds of documentaries about this and they all say the same thing,) I think that the people need to take their country back from the money...
