What a load of crap. The bottom section had a solid base. NONE of it was compromised or experienced an increase in temperature. The top section had a wide open gaping wound for a base and the pictures you responded to illustrates exactly what would be expected to happen. The top section, with its open wound for a base, tore apart as it collapsed onto the bottom, perfectly sound structure with a solid base.
I myself have for many years now come to a tentative
conclusion that the planes were swapped. It just made sense
all four planes (from my understanding) went below RADAR
for a number of minutes before reappearing above RADAR
with their transponders no longer working.

It is not a solid structure. It is a series of connections bolted together and built according to "DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS".
Can you please show me where in the design specifications that the structure is supposed to accept a kinetic(in motion) load of that magnitude?
The only load of crap that I see is the ignorance spewed by people who do not have a clue as to what it takes for a building standing a quarter of a mile in the air to stay intact.
The shear strength of the bolts alone were exceeded when the hundreds/thousamfs of tons of upper structure collapsed. There is no way that that building design could have withstood those types of forces. Especially the viscoelastic dampers in place at the ends of the trusses.
If you do not get this then I am sorry you bought into ignorant online ramblings of which people have no clue. Ignorance seems to lead the way of the masses. Educating one's self on construction of buildings is a great start in breaking away from the chains of ignorance.

You didn't show me where in the design specifications of the structure, it says that the remaining connections are supposed to withstand the kinetic load of the debris.
Blah, blah, blah is about right.

What difference does it make if we can not agree on the amount of down force provided from the top section. I believe it turned to spaghetti and you believe it turned into the Hulk. Video and the photos show it breaking up which opens my mind to new possibilities.

This is, so far, the most plausible explanation for 9/11. I wonder if the story about Putin having irrefutable evidence (allegedly) 9/11 was a false flag is linked. Satellite images of the switch?

Can you please show me where I said it stayed in one piece?
Can you please tell me how the weight would be affected if itbroke up or if it was intact?
Can you tell me how the weight of the downforce of the debris has no impact on how the upper connections are supposed to stay intact during contact of the enormous weight of the falling debris?
It has everything to do with the way the towers fell.
Spaghetti or not, the weight and motion are still present. It still makes contact with the connections. And they were still presented with a load that was not within their design specifications.
so the north tower didn't have the structural integrity to take the motion of the upper section but the south tower had the strength to not just act as a pivot for the massive section above, but to also hold it with sufficient strength to stop it tumbling to the side and off the top? That's convenient. By your theory it should have tipped to the side and started to tear down one side of the tower at an angle. But it didn't. It tipped back in to the path of most resistance and then brought the rest of the tower down. It really is quite impressive that such weak buildings can display such strength.
