Thread: How come structural engineers dont agree with 9/11 conspiracy theorists?

Not even the WTC's own chief engineer. As revealed by this video.

Hog B- look it up yourself.

Because they understand Structural Design and aspects of Architecture. In spite of that fact, it's considered Political Blackballing in the Conspiracy Circle.

Not a very convincing video.
Everyone who is interested now knows that the plane impact and fire doesn't explain the nature of the collapse.

And the fiddling with numbers is not addressing the main problem with the speed of the collapse, in fact the part that says that the impact was 10x as energetic is based on some pretty sloppy assumptions..

As for fire weakening the steel, that is just laughable, it is well known that many people escaped from the upper floors, and through the impacts floors, soon before the collapse. It is unlikely that humans could survive, even for seconds, the heat that is needed to weaken steel, yet they survived.

Another interesting thing is the have your cake and eat it principles of "conspiracy busters":
In this video it states that the wider wings would have knocked out more columns, than the envisioned plane. Compare this to the Pentagon, where we are told to believe that wings didn't even damage the outer wall-you can't have it both ways.

As for structural engineers, you will find that those who give an opinion, are far more likely to support the demolition theory.

I wonder why I answer, because if someone can believe that the frame, and core of the building offered no resistance, and on top of that there was spare energy from somewhere, to throw metal girders, UP and AWAY, from the building, then they have not got a grasp of basic physics, it's as simple as that.
