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.

Early in my career I worked in the chemical industry. For the last nearly 20 years I have worked in aerospace. I am a member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, as well as a member of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers.
In January 2004 I stumbled on a web site that showed evidence that the WTC buildings were brought down by controlled demolition on 9/11. It is clear that the buildings had help to bring them down. The collapses of WTC towers 1 and 2 were obviously far more energetic events than can be explained by some sort of progressive gravitational collapse initiated by a simple weakening of the structure by hydrocarbon fire. Here I am thinking of the tremendous dust clouds (pyroclastic flows) and the nearly free fall speed. Building 7, not hit by a plane, appears to have been a classic controlled demolition, and perfectly symmetrically executed.

Occupation: Electrical
I am a 13 year master electrician in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I have done work in our 42 story office building and other steel beam buildings, as well as in concrete buildings with fire proofing on the structural steel and concrete and on the deck (under the floor).
With all of the fire protection that is done to the structural components and floors and the fire patching I have to do for pipes or cables through walls or floors in buildings in the Milwaukee area, I would think a hi-rise in New York City would have even more stringent codes. Even an older building should have been brought up to code for public safety. With all this, and from what I've read on how the WTC buildings were constructed, I don't think they should have fallen as they did. Maybe the floors above the plane impact floors would have fallen, and some below, but not every single floor, even all the undamaged lower floors? Also, that they fell in such a short time after the plane impacts for Bldgs. 1 & 2, then Bldg. 7 falling hours later for no reason. I'm just an electrician but that doesn't seem right.

It is my unreserved opinion based on my years of working in structural steel that the 9/11 collapses could not possibly have occurred as the government investigations have put forth. American Airlines itself is the source for information that AA Flights 11 (North Tower) and 77 {Pentagon} did not fly on 9/11. These flights are critical to the government's crumbling cover up! Without those flights, Bush and his murderous co-conspirators will have to revise the big lie. Len Hart - Uncensored Magazine June 22 2009. www.uncensored.co.nz As a Canadian with Canadian troops dying in Afghanistan a war based on the 9/11 premise, I call, with all people of good conscience, for a full and honest binding investigation of 9/11 and associated events immediately.

I graduated in 1983 from the New Jersey Institute of Technology with a Bachelor degree in science and in civil engineering. I have been working in civil engineering/construction for over 22 years.My main area of work has been in infrastructure construction. I have built with concrete and steel and am very familiar with their physical properties.
It should be evident to all that buildings of such magnitude, which were built over a period of years, can not be brought down by fire and structural damage due to a small portion of these buildings in such a short period of time. (If at all!) The two World Trade Center buildings 1 and 2 were structurally damaged only in a small area compared to their over all foot print. If they were to collapse, it should have been an asymmetric collapse, centered around the corner of the building with most damage. The symmetric collapse of these buildings have been accomplished by other forces. The nature of the damage does not support the official theory. World Trade Center building no. 7, which was not hit by a plane, may have had small structural deficiencies, mainly due to office fire.This building (or parts of it) should not have collapsed under these circumstances.There have been many credible eye witness reports of explosions, as was also being reported at the time by the news media as well, coupled with other evidence, least of which being the apparent chemical foot prints of explosives found throughout the site.The official report is a white wash and a lie. We need a credible investigation by credible impartial parties to discover the truth and bring to the full light of public disclosure.

Even though it may not be easy to see, it becomes quite obvious that the official story we have been told by the mass media and particularly by Fox news about the nature of the collapses is a lie. I suggest that a computer model be made for the WTC Towers, so that engineers can run the simulation and publish their results.

I was shocked when I saw WTC #1&2 collapse at near freefall acceleration, and I knew immediately that explosives had to have been used to remove the resistance of the concrete and steel BELOW the area where the planes hit.Then when I saw WTC #7 fall at free fall acceleration, I knew that there was a big problem with the official story. I am grateful that I am an engineer and have an analytical mind. I have been very disappointed with so many friends and family members who refuse to think for themselves and just blindly trust the government, even though the official story is easily refuted by using simple physics.

Am expected to finish my studies in December 2018. My final year project is about steel design. The WTC being also in steel makes it a topic of interest.
Something queer remains, the mystery about the incident remains. An investigation was done but it did not answer some of the critical questions. My final year project is about steel design. The WTC being also in steel makes it a topic of interest. There is a need to answer these questions or to remove the doubt of foul play. It was a major investigation and the findings would help out in a lot of sectors that were involved, especially the built environment sector.

The official explanation of the the 9/11 WTC tower collapses does not answer many technical questions. Why did the towers hit by planes collapse? Why did WTC 7 collapse without being hit by a plane? Why did the towers collapse as if a planned explosive demolition was executed? How did temperatures inside the building reach levels that could melt steel? Why was the majority of material pulverized? A thorough, 3rd party investigation is needed.

In reference to 9/11, it is very clear to me that the buildings' total collapse could never have been caused by a plane hitting the building from one side, no matter how forceful the blow might have been. The collapse totally follows a designed demolition action, with the structural elements folding inside.

WTC7 didn't fall by three burning armchairs. No significant debris ever to be seen at the Pentagon. Two planes flying around without control through the worlds most secured airspace without authorities taking them down. BBC reporting about a fallen WTC7 before it fell. There is no further evidence required, that this whole story was a plot. There is only more evidence required, for whom to hang for it.

WTC7 fell out of sympathy. NIST failed to apply appropriate boundary conditions for the framing system in their model. Given the limited heat, presence of fireproofing, a catastrophic symmetrical failure with near free fall acceleration is physically impossible.

My first doubts came up when, on 9/11/2001, I saw the towers collapse for the third time, as with controlled demolition. When I later heard that 10% of the 30000 people who worked there had died, I was convinced that the official story was wrong.

Proud graduate of The City College of New York. If Professor Goshn taught us one thing right, it's the behavior of material under stresses.
Having a building collapse exactly the same way, 110 stories on top of each other, not once, but twice is like winning the lotto, twice, at the same machine, the same day. The probability of this happening is 2^220. In engineering, this is referred to as Controlled Demolition. If you look closely at the video footage, explosions occur on each floor before they collapse. I don't blame the public for believing the media, only few are equipped with the right set of skills to understand the behavior of material under stresses. Very sad to see a government deceive its people in this horrible way.

The official explanation of the collapse of the twin towers and building 7 overlooks key evidence that absolutely should be incorporated into the investigation. The fact that building 7, with limited office fires in a relatively small portion of the building, collapsed instantaneously and symmetrically at the acceleration of gravity with almost no resistance at all from the concrete and steel below is alone bizarre enough to warrant further investigation. The investigation should be about truth and nothing else.

In review of the findings of the NIST Report and other independent investigations, and reviews concerning the failure of buildings in the 911 attack, there is sufficient reason to believe that the NIST Report is either incomplete or incorrect. As a matter of public safety, credibility and completeness of findings, an independent and Engineering study should be performed to either verify or correct the NIST findings.

I'm not a structural engineer, but I know enough to know that we're not getting the whole story here. The way that the buildings collapsed certainly looked like a controlled demolition. How is it that the buildings fell at free-fall acceleration and straight down, doing virtually no damage to any surrounding buildings (especially building 7, which wasn't even hit by anything)?
