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 thought from the first time that I saw the buildings fall that there is no way that all three of those buildings could come straight down as they did. Things just don't happen like that in the real world. Maybe one building, but not all three in such a perfect manner.

Watching Mr. Gage's presentation and reading several background articles, I have to ask myself, Why didn't I see this earlier? With even my limited understanding of physics and building demolition, it should have been completely obvious from watching the original event that the theories presented by the mass media machine we are all plugged into were baloney. It is never too late to find the truth.

I just happened to be up working in the early a.m. PST when events started to unfold in NY, and so was able to see all the coverage from the start. What I saw seemed as though a staged production, although certainly a sinister and incredibly tragic one. The eventual collapse of WTC 1&2 seemed completely implausible due to plane crashes and fire damage. As it has turned out, the evidence now shows this to be the case. Even though the media appeared to have no shortage of experts with ready explanations, I was not satisfied with these official stories. My independent research over many years eventually lead me to the understanding of how these towers actually did collapse so catastrophically and disasterously.

The most unbelievable aspect of the official story, to me, is the free-fall speed and lack of tipping of the buildings. In the failure described by the official story, equal and opposite forces would have caused a jerky fall and lack of perfect symmetry would have caused the structure to tip as it falls.

I've worked in and around construction my entire life. One of my grandfathers was a civil engineer and developer, owning his own firm. He graduated from University of Louisville's civil engineering program. My other grandfather was a machinist and owned his own tool and die company doing contract work for the Louisville Naval Ordnance Station. My father is a builder and owns a sports advertising business. I graduated with a bachelors in civil engineering from Purdue University, an honor's list student who took several graduate-level courses. I landed a great job as an geoenvironmental engineering consultant out of school and worked at a management and design level on several high-profile projects, including a designated Superfund site. I've owned my own general contracting company since 1995 and have worked as an English teacher in several Asian countries, including South Korea, Japan and Thailand.
I grew up in a catholic family that greatly loved JFK and were heartbroken at his assassination. Shortly after, my father was among the first to see a showing of the Zapruder film, by a man who was traveling the country and presenting it at universities. For this reason, I became a bit of a conspiracy scholar from my middle school years and this continued through my adult life, as I became increasingly aware of a world that exists beneath the surface of things. I had just come into knowledge of the Bohemian Grove and Bilderberg meetings during the summer of 2006 when I rather suddenly came to the realization that the collapses of the WTC buildings on 9/11 were the result of a controlled demolition. This took my awakening to the nature of political power in the world to a whole knew level. I've followed hundreds of rabbit holes since then and feel there is a lifetime of work to be done, if one wants to refer to it as that. It's actually more a struggle for freedom and perhaps even survival. Richard Gage and his crew have been relentlessly assembling a body of evidence for over 14 years and have shown a courage that I can only believe must have existed among our ancestors as they fought for freedom against the British.

I have been called on to act as Expert Witness on rolling stock damage cases, and have often carried out condition audits and assessments of rolling stock. I am also a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and a Member of the Institution of Railway Operators.
I was always uneasy about the WTC collapses, and the more I saw of the evidence, the less I liked the official explanation. As mentioned in my bio, I have worked with structural integrity and fire standards for rail vehicles, and although different in detail, they have significant fundamental similarities to architectural standards. The official report does no credit to the engineering community and is a slur on high rise designers who have had to justify why a plane could destroy a skyscraper, or a fire break out and make a building fall down. As the tragic events at the Grenfell Tower in London last year showed once again, high rise buildings do not fall down from fires. Grenfell was described as looking like 'a candle' yet still survives, but a 47 story building with some smouldering paper falls in on itself? The official explanations for the three WTC buildings are a joke and the engineering community needs to say enough is enough; it's time for the truth.

I support an investigation that addresses the evidence identified and the questions raised by the AE911 Truth movement regarding the WTC and Building 7 destruction. I suggest that the investigation should be undertaken by a high-caliber, non-politically-controlled entity (perhaps under the auspices of the National Academy of Science?) with public disclosure of its findings. If AE911 Truth evidence is rejected, minimized or refuted, cogent explanations should be provided.

According to the official story, the twin towers fell by FEMA's pancake theory driven by deterioration of the steel columns from the jet fuel initiated fires. This is inconsistent with the video and data: - no other documented cases of steel inforced building collapse from fire (see LA 1988, UK 1990, Philidelpiha 1991 fires which did not induce collapse) - the video shows that the buildings collapse in free fall, not a slower, fast/slow collapse which would be expected based on the pancake theory - it is not likely that an oxygen deficient, jet fuel initated fire could provide conditions to melt or oxidize steel

I believe that 2 inexperienced pilots, would not have been able to redirect the plane flight path to hit the Buildings as it was done. The aircraft Black Boxes were retrieved, but are hidden. Their content was sensored. I am not interested in theories. Just facts. Also, I wish to know why the burning of the steel structure was at a higher temperature than that of cumbusted kerosine. Why was the the structural steel removed and recycled so quickly without the ability of a 3rd party to investigate? Also, who benefited financially, by shorting the Ailine Stocks via put options.

Concrete cannot be pulverized to dust without an explosion. Steel cannot melt at lower than 2750 degrees Fahrenheit, and jet fuel doesn't burn that hot. It was impossible for jet fuel to bring down these steel reinforced buildings.

While I am not in a position to read and personally evaluate every scrap of evidence pertaining to this situation, there are far too many anomalies and unanswered questions for me to accept the party line.

I've always thought that the way the buildings fell so fast and almost straight down despite asymmetric damage to each tower was a little strange. I can't fathom a reason that WTC7 fell at all. I don't believe what our government tells us and since Dick Cheney was involved, I absolutely don't believe the official story.

I was still in college at Mines when the towers came down. I remember going to one of the 'presentations' that they had on campus to help explain how it could have happened... how the first steel structured building in history had suffered a full collapse due to fire damage(and 3 of them ta boot!). It was some expert from somewhere, and he was quite convincing in the fact that the fuel from the planes had burned hot enough for the steel to fail, and then the 'pan-caking effect' and weight from the stories above caused the accordion type collapse of the towers. Not really being an expert in melting steel (or anything yet, for that matter...) i bought this explanation without further investigation and got back to my classes and trusted it in the hands of the expert investigators. Ever since then, when I truly began to critically think about the disaster in 2001, I cannot bring myself to believe the 'official' explanations of what was reported to have happened on 9/11. It is obvious to me that all 3 buildings were brought down in a planned/controlled demolition, and that there is way more to the 9/11 story than we have 'officially' been told. Please re-open the investigation, and let us not be victims of repeating such dark pasts... by not letting our history be such a dark lie...

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.

The collapse of the WTC towers and WTC 7 strongly resemble that of a perfectly carried out controlled demolition: a straight-down collapse of the structure at close to free-fall speed. Video-footage showing flashes of light across the buildings and witnesses talking of hearing explosions shortly before the collapse support this.

When I saw this happen in 2001 I was at work. Everybody was watching this horrific at the office. All were shocked as to how the WTC could collapse. It was never plausible to me that the planes did this huge damage, the buildings collapsed too symmetrical and it looked like a casino explosion!

I have reviewed the available evidence over the past several years and it overwhelmingly supports the controlled demolition hypothesis concerning the WTC buildings on 9/11. There is more than enough evidence to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the 9/11 commission report is not only substantially incomplete, but glaringly incorrect; yet this document still stands today as the official account of an event that continues to affect our everyday lives.

The nearly uninhibited free-fall of all 3 buildings is contrary to laws of physics (Newton's laws of motion and the conservation of energy / first law of thermodynamics). The collisions during the building collapse (i.e., upper floors dropping into lower floors) would demand that the falling body (upper floors) should slow down far below natural gravitational acceleration value (32.174 fl/s^2 or 9.81 m/s^2) due to momentum and collision losses. The momentum / mass of the lower stationary floors (f=m*a and m1v1 & m2v2 products) would reduce the average speed and acceleration rate of the falling mass, and 2) the energy absorbed (force * distance) via the collision and material distortion (i.e., steel bending), or material disintegration (i.e., concrete crumbling) as the falling upper floors collided with the floors beneath must also reduce the acceleration rate. Also, the jet fuel and office fire burned BLACK (indicating an oxygen lean/fuel rich fire), which would not produce a temperature hot enough to melt such a massive steel structure, much less weaken the structure to the point of collapse, especially as the collapses do not occur with any sort of directional bias (falling toward the failure or weak point).

When I first saw the planes hitting the building I was a engineering student I believed and the media made the whole world believe that it had collapsed by burning of jet fuel.But practically the whole story of collapse of towers by hitting a plane came to me when started investigating on behavior of steels. And this website has even more reason to find the truth. Hope it exposes the truth to the world that the 911 was an inside job.

Without even speaking to the two tallest towers, it is obvious that Building 7 was a controlled demolition. I have training in structures, being a graduate in Civil Engineering. I have training in physics, having passed the rigorous curriculum at Ga. Tech. And it is obvious that building 7 came down at the acceleration that the force of gravity would require. That means that every connector that attached vertical members to horizontal connectors, at each floor level, had to give way completely, and simultaneously, such to bring down that building at the acceleration due to gravity. The 911 Report did not even address the spontaneous implosion of Building 7 at 5:20 PM on the afternoon of 911. The subsequent NIST Report issued years later, failed to explain it's conclusions, or at least failed to explain then in a manner that makes any physical or engineering sense. Therefore, in the interest of truth, and indeed of national security, a fair and impartial commission needs to be placed in charge of a new investigation. And sense the same engineering and physical concerns also surround the conclusions of the 911 Report that did deal with the twin towers, this investigation also needs to have the entire set of events of 911 as it's subject scope.

I have followed AE911Truth for about 10 years and the evidence for controlled demolition is compelling and beyond a reasonable doubt. This catalytic event has changed the world, much for the worse, and the truth must become known to all.

I have practiced Civil & Structural Engineering for the past 30 years. I graduated as a Structural Engineer in 1979. It's hard for me to accept the collapse of building #7, as this building sustained no Structural damage and that the building came down due to an office fire. Technically and structurally this is impossible for a steel structure to come down by a fire. Therefore I strongly feel that there needs to be an independent investigation as to the cause of the collapse.

I have studied Chemical Engineering and have had work experience in automotive sensors, commercial food production and semiconductor formulation development. I have lived in three countries and am coauthor of one patent and cofounder of two startups. In the summer of 2010, I was a participant of Singularity University.
By examining the facts of the three buildings that collapsed on 911, the official story appears to be missing some major aspects. Not only was the collapse of building 7 completely avoided by mainstream media discussions, but the fact that they fell at free-fall speed, no explosives were officially tested for at ground zero and rubble was removed so quickly after 9/11 begs the question that there is more to the official story than originally suggested. If anything, the fact that so much of the current state of the world in terms of removing of individual freedoms and expanded domestic and international government powers, as a people we should be questioning this catastrophic event more.

It is very clear that something more than the plane strikes took down those towers!

The amount of evidence about what really happened on September 11 and more importantly, why the buildings collapsed, is overwhelming. The American public should not be kept in the dark. They should demand a response for the 3000 lives lost on that day.

I am a 26 year old degreed Electrical Engineer and live in the Central New York area. I am currently employed as a Power Systems Engineer for a Company which is very well-known throughout the world. In this position, I focus on electrical distribution system analysis for power systems ranging from 208V to 115kV. I am presently studying to take the New York State Professional Engineer examination to earn my license.
I was a sophomore in high school in September of 2001. At the time, I did not really attempt to better understand the events any further than the basic information the media was providing. This changed in early-2012 when I was part of the electrical engineering team working towards approval from Con-Edison for energization of the new WTC2. As I watched the progress being made on the new WTC complex, I felt that I needed to go back and better understand what had really happened on 9/11. As I began research on the topic, I quickly came to the realization that the official explanation did not make sense. I am very interested in pursuing this personal research further and am grateful that I came across A&E 911 Truth. I feel this is a fantastic organization which is asking all of the right questions!
