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 have 8 years' mechanical design experience in the electronics cooling industry and 5 years of patent and IP experience in high technology areas. My expertise is in the areas of ISO 9000 processes, harsh environments standards, liquid cooling, materials processing, phase-change heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, CAD, heat exchangers, control systems, electronics packaging, and mounting and enclosures with a growing knowledge of computer science. I also: -Became the resident expert designer of acrylic test and display enclosures. -Conducted an in-depth research study of the heat transfer co-efficient of spray cooling for a heated cylindrical surface. Developed and patented an actuated atomizer and a passive fluid recovery system for multiphase fluid. -Served on the Material Review Board, the SprayCool product standardization board, and the team which created a SprayCool Technology Training Program. -Authored the company's ISO 9000 Design Control Operating Procedures and trained company personnel on the procedures I wrote. -Established and managed an Integration Lab. -Was named inventor on 7 issued patents. Sole inventor on 1 issued patent. 4 add'l patents pend.
The collapses of all buildings appear to be controlled demolitions, particularly building 7, which was not impacted by a plane, did not catch fire, and was not otherwise compromised by heat damage. It was merely hit by falling debris, yet it collapsed, pancaking one level upon another. In comparison to other buildings which have toppled due to outside factors, one simply does not see the pancaking seen in the demolition of the WTC buildings. The official story is bunk!

As a small child I witnessed the collapse of a non-combustible manufacturing building after the steel structure was subjected to extreme heat from a raging fire for hours. The pile of rubble left by the twisted, melted structure was more than half as tall as when the structure stood when in tact. - - - - I have also witnessed the planned implosion of four or more high-rise buildings. - - - - I believe it is very possible that there was much more to the demise of Towers 1 and 2 than just the impact of jets and the power of the fuel they contained. Reasons for the collapse of Tower 7 has remained to me unsatisfactorily explained in the media coverage for the events of 9-11-01. - - - - I am deeply concerned that scientific calculations, debris material sampling and analysis have not been given a fair platform in which the causes of the three Trade Center building collapses on 9-11-01 would be clarified and given fair media and grounds for understanding and justice.

Occupation: Senior Construction Inspector
I have twenty years of experience and a solid working knowledge of construction processes and of the materials utilized in most every aspect of construction. My field experience is extensive; it ranges across every aspect of transportation projects such as airports, rail lines, ferry terminals and transit centers, underground utilities and both sanitary and storm water conveyance systems to hazardous waste containment structures, earthen dams and dikes, and concrete dams. And I have extensive experience inspecting and testing all manner of construction related materials.
From the moment I saw the towers collapse on September 11th 2001 I knew something was amiss. Firstly, since there is no horizontal component to gravity, I felt that some unseen force was responsible for driving large sections of the external box columns horizontally outward to land well beyond the expected limits of debris pile spawned by gravity driven collapse. My second observation was the pulverization of the lightweight concrete. Because it takes hundreds of thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch to shatter 6-inch x 12-inch concrete tests cylinders but never is more than a tiny percentage of the concrete (less than 1%) pulverized. I recognized there was most certainly a great deal of available energy within those collapses to crush the concrete, I did not note a slowing in the collapse as the gravitational kinetic energy was sapped away from the falling section. The observation from the morning was that while fire was visible in sections of the towers it was noticeably absent elsewhere. Speaking specifically of the north tower now, I found it incredibly odd that all of the external columns and (apparently) all of the core columns failed simultaneously on the same floor. This seemed odd because the steel frame should have provided multiple alternative load paths so portions of the building should have held fast while other sagged. A simultaneous global collapse could never have occurred due to unilateral damage from the impact, or from uneven heating of the columns. Call my observations that day hunches or whatever. From the minute I saw the collapses I have doubted the official story. From the efforts and offering of A&E for 9/11 Truth I have learned that my hunches were spot-on; I have learned much beyond those hunches as well through the work of your steering committee and from all the experts who have added to your work. And I thank all of you for your efforts and your time. One last thing. In 2007 I learned that a woman I loved dearly was killed in the North Tower that September 2001 morning as she sat at her desk in the offices of Marsh USA. My understanding is that her desk was at ground zero of Ground Zero, meaning she died instantly. I hope and pray this is the case. Denise Crant, may God hold your soul close to his heart. Thank you to everyone associated with Architects & Engineers, for 9/11 Truth.

I received a Master's Degree in Environmental Engineering from the University of Southern California in 1981. The Environmental Engineering Program was part of the Department of Civil Engineering, with an emphasis on water and waste water treatment. I have over 20 years of experience working as an environmental professional, providing compliance support to companies on the following topics: air quality, hazardous materials/risk management, solid & hazardous waste management, storm water program requirements, waste water permitting, underground and above ground storage tanks, oil pollution prevention, PCBs, and asbestos.
I first became aware that the official government story regarding the building collapses was suspect after attending the 911-Inquiry Conference in San Francisco in March 2004. Since that time, I have been part of the 9-11 Truth Community, and have kept abreast of the developments arising from the ongoing research efforts of a number of dedicated individuals. In particular, watching video footage of the building collapses, hearing the numerous eye-witness accounts of explosions prior to the buildings collapsing, and learning that molten steel was present in the building debris (which, due to the laws of physics, could not possibly have arisen from a hydrocarbon fire--even under ideal circumstances--given the significantly higher melting temperature of steel), lead me to believe that the official story is simply not plausible. Learning more recently that evidence of nano-thermite was discovered in a sample of the building material, was particularly disturbing and I believe strongly that we need to push for a new investigation into the events of 9-11.

I am a Czech citizen and I currently live in the UK. I strongly believe not only the US citizens should find out the real cause of the events of 9/11, but also the entire world should.
I believe there is overwhelming evidence suggesting that the official version of why the WTC7 collapsed doesn't add up and therefore there should be a new investigation in order to find the real cause of the event.

College graduate of Business Information Systems, worked in database reporting ever since. Intelligent and logical. I followed Nafeez Ahmed's books, and then David Ray Griffin, and the myriad of American and international personal investigators that took on the truth and interspersed it with the knowledge they had of the sciences.
It is clear there is not a factoid of evidence that backs up the 'official conspiracy theory' of 19 Muslim hijackers. Too perfect were the demolitions of the Twin Towers and the obvious controlled demolition of WTC7 in the afternoon. We must bring justice to this issue as the US is now clearly not a constitutional government any more.

I have a BA (Hons) in Drama and theatre studies with Identity studies from Liverpool University (Hope University) I am also a writer, film maker with varying interests of study.
I have been studying 9/11 for quite some time and believe due to overwhelming scientific and eyewitness evidence of explosives being used in both the Twin Towers and Building 7. There is scientific and anecdotal evidence which overwhelmingly points to a cover up. The fact that Building 7 fell supposedly by fire alone and yet there was NO investigation despite the unusual nature of the event. Adding the Twin Towers collapse to that of Building 7 with no investigation into the safety of skyscrapers and their vulnerability to fire. (Going by the official story) is in itself negligible. The new building in the WTC complex has been built with similar so called vulnerabilities which makes no sense if the buildings fell on 9/11 by fire alone. (Including 'plane impact') If it happened how the official story said, building safety standards should have been investigated.

From the evidence presented by AE911Truth, and others, it is clear that these three steel-framed buildings could not have collapsed by fire. Also, it is clear that the purpose of 9/11 Commission was to absolve the US Government of wrong-doing and to bamboozle the general public.

I have seen enough buildings and structures collapse in my life to know that the Twin Towers and Building 7 did not fall by natural causes or accidental causes such as fires. Even wood structures don't do this and if you drive around any slum neighborhood where there is a burnt out house this is evident.
Obviously a staged demolition with overwhelming evidence of the use of thermite like substance.
