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 majored in architecture at U.C. Berkeley, became an architectural draftsperson and later AutoCAD specialist before becoming licensed to practice architecture in the State of California in the late 90's. My license is current and in good standing.
From the moment I first saw the tower collapse on TV it seemed clear and obvious that only a planned demolition could have achieved the observable results, so I was surprised by the conclusions of the official 9-11 report. At this point I reviewed the evidence, which only substantiated my initial impressions. The ample video and photographic evidence combined with a basic knowledge of structural engineering leaves little doubt about the collapse being caused by anything other than a planned demolition.

I have been an Arizona State Senator for four years. Before that I served in the AZ House of Representatives for 8 years. Don't ask me how this happened -- I much prefer being a mother and homemaker. My husband, Jerry, and I have 11 children and 33 grandchildren. But I am concerned that our Constitution is being whittled away in small pieces and that we are at a critical point in our history, especially with the events of 9/11. So I find myself neck-deep in politics. I hope I have done some good.
More than six years after 9/11, we still have not had a thorough investigation of the causes of that tragedy. I am so impressed by the research of Dr. Steven Jones, Frank Legge, Tony Szamboti, David Ray Griffin, and so many others. My concern deepens every time I read a new article. As the evidence of controlled demolition mounts, my desire for a new investigation increases. I want to add my voice to the voices of AE for 911 Truth.

TERRY NORMAN, CEng., BSc Eng., M Inst.M & C. Terry is a capable and respected design engineer with a wide experience of production plant, process engineering, construction, commissioning and project engineering. After obtaining a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of London in 1969, this was followed by comprehensive industrial training with the Shell Company as an Instrument and Control Engineer. With over 20 years in the oil and gas industry and spells in the Steel Industry and in British Aerospace Military Division as a mechanical test engineer, Terry then spent 13 years with the Health and Safety Executive as a specialist engineer, covering safety case work and accident investigation on construction plant and lifting equipment. He has developed a thorough knowledge of the HSAWA principle of risks being as low as reasonably practicable, and has prepared and presented evidence for safety case assessment and litigation purposes on numerous occasions.
Simple observation of the falling of the towers shows typical characteristics of controlled explosive demolition. Even if it had been possible to melt the structural steel on the upper floors from fuel burning, which is doubtful, it is highly likely, virtually certain, that the upper sections of the towers would have toppled intact, leaving the lower sections standing.

There is no history of any high rise building collapsing from relatively minor (or even major) fires. The isolated damage to #7 could not have made the building collapse. Also, it collapsed from the bottom, bringing the entire building down on its foundation as would be entirely expected from a planned implosion.

Own and operate small engineering firm specializing in structural engineering for over 12 years. Have a Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from Washington State University with an emphasis in structures. I have a very good understanding of how buildings are constructed and how they behave under the influence of outside forces. Most buildings are constructed with redundancies so that they don't collapse catastrophically.
It is virtually impossible for WTC building 7 to collapse as it did with the influence of sporadic fires. This collapse HAD to be planned. For the twin towers, it seems odd that both buildings came down the exact same way. Also, someone made a comment the buildings were designed to implode downward. For me more information is needed here because I don't design high rise structures but it would seem odd that engineers would design in a buildings destruction. That's why explosives are used.

Physics does not lie. Anybody who passed a physics class should be able to understand what it means when a body falls nearly at free fall. This happens to skyscrapers only when explosives are used.

Did some graduate work in Materials at Stanford but did not finish as I joined a more exciting effort, a start up named Starstruck formed to launch a rocket for delivering satellites into near earth orbit. Then went onto another start up, Metcal, using shape memory alloy materials in creative applications. In my third start up, Crystallume, I designed and built the first system in a garage to grow diamond from methane gas. Now I own a regular company that inspects and tests fire trucks throughout Ca & Co.
After reading everything I could find for four months on the subject to where my head was spinning, I realized that all the evidence you need to see the truth is in the 10 second video of the Bldg. 7 collapse. You don't need an engineering degree to see it.

The collapse of Building 1,2 &7 are so similar to controlled demolition of other buildings...that it isn't even funny. Fire does not cause buildings to collapse at near free fall speed! Why does the government want to suppress a new independent investigation? We as the American people, not just professionals need to demand a new truly independent investigation!

I graduated from college and passed my Mass. state E.I.T exam in 1991. Upon graduation, I began working for a local engineering firm doing HVAC design for commercial buildings. I then moved on to performing structural analysis/ design for the same firm, and finally ended up as a manager in charge of demolition projects for a Natural Gas equipment company, where I worked for 8 years. I have since moved on to being self-employed in an unrelated field.
The buildings that fell on 9-11-01 appeared to me, to fall at near FREE FALL speed. Without performing any experiments or calculations, and just relying on pure, old fashioned common sense, this is not possible in a steel building .... even one that had the structure weakened by fire. If the Pancake theory is correct, it stands to reason the resistance that the falling mass would encounter as each floor collapsed, would slow down the fall, at least intermittently. I simply DO NOT believe the official report and would like to see a new independent investigation.

Prior to my life as an electrical engineer I worked in residential construction, most of the time installing and finishing drywall.
I became interested in a possible cover up of the true nature of the collapse of the WTC towers after reading some of Dr. Steven Jones research on the matter. Dr. Jones was an archeologist/physicist at BYU before resigning due to the controversial nature of his research into the 9/11 attacks. BYU had no desire to have their name associated with controversial topics of political nature, as I'm sure it is something most institutions would seek to avoid. Dr. Jones makes a compelling case for controlled demolition on the WTC towers.

When I watched the collapse of the WTC buildings, I knew there was something fishy about the whole affair. No building of that size goes down in free-fall speed, and collapses in his own foot-print. It looked to me more like a typical controlled demolition with explosive charges, remember the King Dome in Seattle. Jet Fuel is like Kerosene with a low flame point, its fire temperature is never high enough temperature to melt steel. There was a high-rise in Madrid that burnt for days without coming down.

I always felt that this happened too precisely and that it was very odd how it happened. Never thought that the way that the planes hit and went through the buildings could actually happen that way (the Wiley Coyote pattern). As I get older and wiser, I've not got a lot of confidence in what is being revealed to the public as to what is actually happening today with politics, technology, and otherwise. I feel that there is a huge mask placed over much of what is happening in the name of National Security.

When I saw the collapses on TV, I thought they were unusual but did not question the mainstream media (MSM) account. I heard about Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth on Coast to Coast Am last night, and they presented the evidence for controlled demolition. I am now aware of it and believe it is the truth; it is obvious that it was controlled demolition. I want to know who was responsible and how they did it.

There needs to be a structural evaluation of the failure of the World Trade Center towers and Building 7 on September 11, 2001 in New York City. I believe there is no possibly way the buildings could have collapsed the way they did without a professional demolition effort. All three buildings should have fallen over first.

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.

Clearly there is NO WAY the buildings of 9-11 could have collapsed (especially at free fall) from the fires and damage they sustained. Why there has not been a total debunking of the official 'report' before now is a total mystery to me.

The aircraft were not controlled from the cockpit when they hit buildings 1 and 2. The aerobatics with aircraft full of people, full of fuel, full of cargo, could not have been done by human control. They precisely bank and swerve into specific floors, middle, with precise bank to allow floor above and below to slice open the fuel tanks in the wings for immediate surface-of-building fire and smoke (maximum psychological/terror affect). This required a quartz altimeter (accurate to two feet elevation). The inexperienced Saudi alleged pilots would have simply flown straight into the buildings, open above surrounding buildings, not requiring any radical maneuvering what-so-ever.

After viewing the building 7 collapse, I have to say if somebody told me that a demolition expert was reducing building 7 to rubble I would agree. The thermite connection is strong evidence that somebody orchestrated cutting the under-pinnings of building 7 and probably had the twin towers prepared for demolition.

The few videos I have seen and interviews I have heard were taken with much skepticism. However there are many troubling questions that I feel the 911 commission did not answer. The most troubling to me is that the investigation was obviously not done in a completely objective and scientific way. Much evidence was neglected, and those on the panel most likely had prejudices to the findings.

I am extremely concerned about the melted metal found versus temperatures found in a normal 'office fire', as well as the quickness and direction of collapse. A friend of mine receives full physicals every 3 years, paid for by the government, since he helped in the recovery effort; knowing that he could have/has inhaled metallic microspheres is alarming.

First, verify the facts. Leave the speculation to later. Based on the photographic evidence of the collapses alone, there are a host of issues that cry out to be openly debated until there is a complete and consistent explanation of events. Without a truly independent commission, speculation will remain rampant and conspiracy theory(ies) flourish. It would be even less likely that those responsible will be brought to justice if we can't agree on what brought the buildings down.

It is difficult for me to believe from a technical point of view that building 7 collapsed as the official report indicates from fire and debris damage. Portions of the building may have collapsed from damage however, the entire building collapsed symmetrically including the portions of the building which were in no way compromised as a result of the collapse of the twin towers.

consulting engineer (electrical) since 1979. Current area of specialization is the mission-critical electrical and mechanical infrastructure of data centers.
From all of the material I have reviewed (documentaries, news print articles, professional opinions, the Commission's report, etc.), I do not understand how WTC 7 collapsed.
