Food for Thought: WTC Was Designed to Withstand Direct Impact from a 707 (vid)

Quote from Grob109:

Think carefully.

Was there an impact?

Did the towers survive?


The rules and standards did not work for many buildings that day with regard to other considerations. You will find how much energy was involved at some point. Look into how long it was stored on the site after the impact.

Interestingly, building six remained standing, despite being crushed and burnt. They had to use a controlled demolition to bring it down!

"It appears that fires may have raged through WTC 6. The FEMA report, which has extensive discussion about fires in WTC 5, is silent on fires in WTC 6. From the appearance of the remains of WTC 6, it probably had fires similar in severity to those in WTC 5. Despite the massive structural damage shown by the holes, and fires probably more severe than those in WTC 1, 2, and 7, WTC 6 did not collapse."

Quote from bronks:

The whole "Pulled..." fiasco:



Pulling gets it's meaning from the practice of blowing a central support first, such that it pulls the rest of the building in toward itself. This way it falls in on itself, rather than out onto other buildings.

So when you decide to pull a building, then you stand back and watch it collapse...which is what they did. But because Silverstien is not considered a pro demolitions guy, he is allowed to use the word with a double meaning. Indians call it "fork-tongue".

The whole WTC7 fiasco:


The Damage and Fire

* The following are just a few of the documented impressions of authorities on the scene:

o Deputy Chief Nick Visconti also later recalls recounts, "A big chunk of the lower floors had been taken out on the Vesey Street side." Captain Chris Boyle recalls, "On the south side of 7 there had to be a hole 20 stories tall in the building, with fire on several floors." - Firehouse Magazine, 8/02


Here's a pic of WTC7 from the SOUTHEAST side. Do you see any "hole 20 stories tall "?

Quote from Grob109:

I got pay checks from AIA, EOP and people who have bought buildings. ASTM has invited me to serve.

For the humor of it, at UCSC, I kept a cigar box of failed connectors on my desk.

Since I observed the event, I have done some reading from a variety of sources and had some conversations. I definitely need a larger cigar box for this one.

Perhaps you will get what Bronk is saying someday.

I'm surprised this current administration has not asked you to serve already.

Here's some failed connectors to stuff in your cigar box...

Perhaps you will spell bronks' name correctly someday.
