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 am a proud US Navy veteran, journeyman electrician, and degreed electrical engineer with a focus on energy systems.
WTC-7 collapsed at free fall for 2.25 seconds, over 105 feet of its initial descent. We see the roofline go from stationary into absolute free fall. NIST agrees that WTC-7 collapsed at free fall on page 46 of the 'final report on the collapse of WTC-7' (not their rough draft). NIST acknowledges 105 feet of free fall for 2.25 seconds, but does not see a problem with this. I see a very big problem with this. Anyone that has something to hide about 9/11 is a suspect in my book. There ARE more terrorists still out there. We need to bring these people to justice! Lastly, on 9/10/2001, then secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced to the world that our Pentagon cannot account for 2.3 trillion dollars. The next day, 9/11/2001, nobody cared about his 2.3 trillion dollar announcement.

Over 25 years experience developing products and systems, and analyzing failures in the Aerospace, Electronics and Medical fields.
The official report describing the cause of the collapse of the three structures at the World Trade Center seems to reach conclusions not based on the evidence presented and does not address evidence that does not support the conclusion. It is not credible. Many actions, costing many lives and billions of taxpayers money have been initiated based on the story repeated in that report. The American People, and the people of the world, deserve a thorough review of all the relevant data and facts and an open analysis and conclusion from a reputable and diverse professional group. Please find the courage to support revisiting the facts surrounding the collapse of the buildings on 9/11. Thank you.

If the official explanation is true, it follows that all the events that took place in 9/11 defy engineering and physics principles, but most importantly, they defy logic. By having the most basic experience with mechanical phenomena you can clearly see that the top of the South Tower should have continued falling off to the side of the building when it tilted immediately after the collapse started. The only reasonable explanation is that it encountered no resistance as it fell or that it was pulverized in mid air.

I received significant training in national defense strategies where communications systems where involved. I received an honorable discharge and numerous awards for professionalism, integrity and honor. I am currently an IT professional in an international company where I managed very large and complex business data systems.
Approximately one month to the day of September 11, I found myself pondering the recent news reports indicating the potential negative trends of the economy. Since the reports were vague but consistent, I began to ponder as to how they could be accurate. Using my past experience and knowledge as a former Professional service-member I concluded that for a foreign power to disrupt the national economy or physically threaten the nation. It would have to have the capability of bringing down a skyscraper in a major US city. Which, was technically not possible. The idea that the threat could come from within, was not unthinkable. But, at the time it was easier to imagine that such a scheme and it's perpetrators would be exposed. The day I heard the building was hit, I thought it was quite a coincidence. Less than an hour later, I heard someone in the office saying the build had fallen. I thought, impossible. Throughout the days and weeks that followed. I heard so called official reports that, based on my knowledge were either lies or crimes at the highest levels. For instance, it was reported that NORAD did not respond in time because the pilots were involved in a training exercise and was not sure the messages coming in were real or part of the training exercise. In training exercises one crucial elements is to exclude an element form the training in the event of a actual threat. Another fact is that in communications the training takes place in a network of data transmissions specifically designated for non real world training exercises. Either the NSA policies have changed or the NSA was a part of the event.

Copiague, NY
Occupation: Construction Materials Testing Labratory Manager
Graduating with a Masters Degree in Mechanical engineering. As manager of a construction materials testing laboratory in NYC I design and manage the construction of large scale steel structures in a laboratory setting. The structures incorporate a lot of different elements of the building including the buildings windows, wall panels, curtain walls, and store fronts. On these mock-ups I conduct a myriad of structural tests, impact tests, air and water leakage tests. We can apply uniform wind loads using air pressure to apply force to facade elements and examine damage, measure, deflection, or even just blow out the windows. A colleague of mine also offers blast testing of windows doors and glass.
The ultimate destruction of all three towers in the word trade center can only be explained with high tech military grade explosive devices that would have taken multiple days of work to install. For these reasons all 'terrorist attacks' need to be investigated by unbiased investigators. All we want is the truth but are denied a proper investigation because the usual suspects (intelligence agencies colluding with the media) continue to bamboozle the American people in the present day.

WTC1 and WTC2 could not have collapsed as witnessed without the action of controlled explosives. No building collapses against the path of maximum resistance, as would be provided by the internal core of the building. This core structure had to first be weakened, destroyed, and displaced by forces not due to falling debris. At worst, the parts of the building above the impact zones should have leaned over with only parts falling off. WTC7 is the only building in history that collapsed due to sporadic office fires, the first in history. It was in free fall against the path of maximum resistance. These events are, in my opinion, not physically possible without the input of planned explosives.

Received a BSEE in 1958 while working at nights and summers at Douglas Aircraft Company. Initially I worked for Servomechanisms Inc for 2 years, then Nortronics on the Polaris Missile System for 2 years before joining Canoga Electronics. My work there for 8 years was on digital interfaces. I briefly worked at Sagetec, a startup, before forming Data Works in Los Angeles in 1973. Three years later it was purchased by Fairchild who moved it to San Jose. In 1978, myself and two partners bought it back from Fairchild and started ICS Electronics which specialized in GPIB computer to instrument interfaces. I was president and ran the company until was sold in 2018. Construction has always been a side interest of mine as we built two buildings for ICS and our own home in the Bay area. I am currently retired and doing some consulting for ICS.
The video about the collapse of 1 WTC has always bothered me. The radio spire on top of the building appears to sink before the building starts to fall This is very reminiscent of all of the building demolition videos I have seen. My second problem is the lack of plane debris at the crash site at Shanksville and at the Pentagon. I think the whole story about 9/11 needs to be reviewed.

As I observed the twin towers collapsing in real time it was apparent that 'there's something wrong with this picture.' A review of the evidence has brought me to the conclusion that the public narrative and 'official' findings are incorrect and intentionally misleading. Volumes of evidence indicate that the twin towers and Building 7 were destroyed by controlled demolition rather than fire. Building 7 is the 'smoking gun.'

My personal experience has included the consideration of peak particle velocities in relation to explosives used underground and their likely impact on neighboring buildings, together with the risk of settlement when tunneling in urban areas. Bank vaults are usually ultra sensitive (in alarm terms) to vibration from explosives that can be some distance away. Was any bank vault alarm data from nearby buildings available and analyzed to corroborate exact timings of possible explosive use in the buildings before the main collapses? I am convinced from the available evidence that these collapses were assisted by the use of explosives and/or thermite.

"When I learned the truth about 9/11, I became extremely angry that our own Federal Government may have developed and executed an extremely evil plan to blame another country for a major act of terror which VERY SECRETLY our own Government seems to have committed. It appears It was designed as a catalyst to pass the ""Patriot Act"" which took away many of our citizens rights and freedoms. If true, in many ways our Federal Government is acting just as evil, or possibly even more evil, than the Nazis."

It is clear to me now that there were tell-tale signs that the three WTC towers were taken down by controlled demolitions: squibs; explosions heard by eyewitnesses in the basement, lobby, and on the street; the speed at which the towers fell that does not agree with laws of physics if they were collapsing under gravity alone; the lateral projectiles as the towers fell; projectiles seen exploding in mid-air; thermite discovered in the dust; molten steel pouring from one of the towers just below the impact of the plane, and the molten steel in the rubble that was seen by eyewitnesses at the site in the days after the collapse. We need to know the truth.

I am no expert, but as a kid, I found controlled demolitions fascinating so I've seen many of them. When I saw the first trade center 'collapse' live on TV in 2001, my first thought was, 'I can't believe a plane can do that.' Then the second one came down exactly the same way. Then I thought, 'Wow, I guess a plane CAN do that.' Then I saw building 7 come down and thought, 'That looks exactly like a controlled demolition.' Years later and sifting through much evidence, analysis, and demonstrations, the most plausible explanation of what I saw is that they were all deliberate controlled demolitions.

It was a 'controlled demolition'. It takes some time for steel to melt. The plane impact was only at a point. Why was there uniform destruction of the structural members of the building from the point of impact down to the floor?

I hold two engineering degrees as indicated above (1971, 1972), but have not been employed as an engineer since 1978, when I followed other endeavors. My background and experience in engineering and the sciences have however continued to guide my daily work in those other endeavors and my consideration of issues such as what really happened on 911.
The official explanations of what happened on 911 are simply not plausible. I find the collection of evidence from Achitects & Engineers for 911 Truth to be compelling, and although the exact truths are difficult to discern, what this organization suggests must certainly come very close. Regarding in particular the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings, I believe the use of explosives has now been amply proven to be fact.

From the simplest piece of information alone, free fall speed of collapse, it is not even remotely possible to suggest any hypothesis other than controlled demolition. In other words, it is already physically impossible for anything other than controlled demolition to have caused a free fall speed of collapse. The huge mountain of other evidence collected corroborates completely and further proves controlled demolition, although it should be the obvious cause. It was spouted all over the media for one day (9/11/2001) then forbidden and officially called a crazy theory put forth by aluminum foil-hatted conspiracy nuts. The official story claims a conspiracy, where the people involved could not have possibly committed such an intricately planned and difficult demolition. High level people in the military were needed. So the truth of controlled demolition was replaced by an impossible lie about airplanes and their resultant pockets of fire. In addition to being trained to be skeptical, I am so by nature. It was with this approach that I started to study the evidence of 9/11, one thinking this evidence is flawed. It did not take long to be convinced beyond any shadow of doubt that the official story of 9/11 is a planted lie, that three World Trade Center buildings were demolished on purpose, that the Pentagon was hit by a missile, that the Pennsylvania crash did not occur at all, and that the force behind all this horror is a small rogue but extremely powerful group within our own government: the Neocons to be precise.

Any ordinary non-engineer citizen who has seen a controlled demolition film clip, like those shown on the Discovery Channel or similar channel, can readily see that the twin towers and WTC 7 were brought down in exactly the same way. After I saw some internet videos on the analysis of the towers' collapse and heard the commentary with it, I was convinced the whole thing was planned. From that point, I started linvestigating the bigger picture about the Bush administration and the Iraq war. Unfortunately, I must conclude that this country has become corrupt to its core - maybe not the Obama administration, we'll have to see - and that a major overhaul of our political system is desperately needed before we devolve into martial law or anarchy.

The results of the peer-reviewed study published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal, 2009, 2, 7-31 (link http://www.bentham-open.org/pages/content.php?TOCPJ/2009/00000002/00000001/7TOCPJ.SGM) contains clear scientific proof that unreacted nanothermite explosive fragments were found in the dust from the world trade center collapse. Methods used for analysis include optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, spectroscopy, and calorimetry. They witnessed and photographed triggered micro-explosions from the nanothermite fragments. These microexplosions produced the same heat and force output as laboratory nanothermite. The dust was sampled from four different locations soon after the collapses. One sample was collected about ten minutes after the collapses of WTC buidlings 1 & 2. All dust samples produced essentially the same findings. The unreacted explosive fragments can clearly be seen under low-power magnification, as photographs from the paper illustrate. This type of explosive is apparently untraceable, unlike most kinds of demolition materials. Eight different authors from universities and organizations around the world including Denmark, Utah, Indiana, Australia, Berkeley, Dallas contributed to this paper. This kind of science cannot be fudged. After reading this I became convinced that the reason for the clear and undeniable presence of explosive residue in the dust should be thoroughly re-investigated, espcecially since the NIST & FEMA reports did not even look for or mention these findings.

I have worked 10 years as a sonar transducer engineer and have worked 3 years as an ultrasonic engineer currently designing ultrasonic fluid sensors for the medical field.
There is so much physical evidence to dispel the official story. I join the call for an independent investigation.

The evidence of molten steel, columns cut evenly at 30 foot lengths and the collapse of building 7 without any significant damage is compelling evidence that warrants the independent investigation of a possible mass-murder crime scene.

Looked like a planned demolition. Why did building 7 fall down? We deserve the truth.

I have a masters in electrical engineering and find it hard to believe how anybody could believe steel buildings pancake from a fire.
Believing in the official story of 911 is like someone from 300 years ago during the Inquisition who believed in witches and the world was flat.

I graduated from the United States Military Academy in 2002 with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. I served as an officer for five years of active duty, serving two tours of duty in Iraq as a tank platoon leader and a trainer for the Iraqi Army. I currently build new stores, remodel & expand existing stores, and build fuel facilities for The Kroger Company.
As a civil engineering student at West Point on 9/11 when the World Trade Center buildings collapsed, I marveled at the explanation that jet fuel could melt through structural steel, how the buildings could collapse straight down at near free-fall speeds through the path of greatest resistance, and how many witnesses reported hearing explosions. After further research and hearing the commentary of fellow professionals, I could not concur with the official explanation offered by the government & the 9/11 Commission.

The buildings did not collapse from those planes. It was a controlled demolition project.

I'm a graduate of Rowan University with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering in Spring 2009 and I am not employed yet. I love winnowing out the truth of everything that happens and working hard to do it. I exercise when I get a chance to stay in shape and keep the stress off and I am a Christian who loves this country and the freedoms that we are entitled to.
I think the idea that it is too harsh to bring up 9/11 is a huge crock. My family and friends cannot wrap their minds around how this could have been staged but as you said, all of the signs are there. Thank you for your very professional and detailed presentation. I hope that more people will watch this and finally come to the truth, and I really hope that I am not old and gray before we can get a true statement from our government. Keep up the great work.
