This is false a good number of scientists with impeccable credentials have studied the red/grey chips.

Carrington fire test proved this can't happen in a steel framed building. The heated a steel beam attached to a girder with shears studs and stiffeners and did not collapse.
Can you point me to the steel beam girder test. I've only seen the truss test.

They could be items dropped by people running from the scene.
People carrying life vest and seat cushions ?
You'r not very good at this.

Then why does code require steel frame building to be insulated?
You just need steel girders and steel shear bolts? You really don’t see the fallacy of your thoughts.
And when is a beam a girder, and a girder a beam?
And there is actually real debate what the drawings really show. What was typical, what columns got what, and which columns are atypical. You do realize lots of the drawings were destroyed in the buildings. And the acquired drawings used were hand me downs left overs. They would not denote any changes from years of remodeling.
How does any of those items stop steel from expanding at different rates, prevent strain from uneven heating, prevent steel from expanding when heated, prevent steel from misshaping and prevent strain when the steel has no room to expand, prevent the steel from weakening as it increases in temperature, and cannot prevent additional stain and contraction as the steel cools. And long columns will buckle as they lose lateral support?

You keep spouting 4000f and 5000f when Harrit ignited in the DSC at 430c.
If it ignited at 430c, it’s probably not thermite. Please do tell what temperature iron oxide and aluminum burn at, and what temperature it maintains when it burns?
And I guess if it burns at 430C, it didn’t melt steel. So it wasn’t whatever Harrit found that caused the WTC to collapse.
And the paper is junk because they never gave a formula for “super thermite” they claimed they found that supposedly has a lower ignition temperature. So how can you verify what super thermite is?
And you cannot name one test they conducted that proves the paint chips could sustain a thermite reaction?
This is false a good number of scientists with impeccable credentials have studied the red/grey chips.
That is why they had to use a hack pay to play journal. Couldn’t get published elsewhere. Had to use people that helped put together the paper as peer reviewers.
And bypassed the paper’s referee? And they never did complete the process with independent verification by independent labs.
And you cannot name any people independent of Harrit’s paper that found thermite.
And forensic testing proved their was no free aluminum for a thermite reaction in the WTC dust.
neutronflux I cropped the picture to upload it. You find this NIST official image more here.
But the Carrington Fire test showed a steel rise building does not collapse from fire.
WTC7 steel has a hole cut out sections. What temp would you need to cause that? FEMA claims 1000c heat+ sulphur.

One of your images has bank and credit cards? Are you claiming people could have not dropped them while running away from the scene?
So are you claiming the passport went from one end of the building to the other exited out took a flight in the air for god knows how many feet and landed on a street near the Banker Trust building?

Dr Hulsey has updated people on his research. He revealed that a number of papers will be released in one to two months. They will be sent to peer review by respected journals in Europe. His unsure he can do in America due to the politics of the event.
He also said he has computer modelled the actual collapse and will show it to the public. NIST must be in fear now that Hulsey can replicate the conditions of the actual collapse. Everything has been tested and verified.

Dr. Leroy Hulsey gave the following update on March 27, 2018:
To all who have been following the University of Alaska Fairbanks study on the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7:
First, I would like to thank you for your interest in and support of the study.
We had planned to release our findings for public review early this year. However, research often takes unexpected turns, and the more complicated the problem, the more difficult it is to predict the completion date. We are still in the process of studying hypothetical collapse mechanisms and attempting to simulate the building’s failure. Our goal is to determine, with a high degree of confidence, the sequence of failures that may have caused the observed collapse and to rule out those mechanisms that could not have caused the observed collapse.
We will release our findings for public review when we are sure we fully understand the mechanisms that are likely to have caused the observed collapse and those that clearly did not occur and could not have caused the observed collapse. We expect to publish our findings later this year, but we will refrain from naming a completion date, given the unpredictability of the research process.
Again, we thank you for your interest in our study and we appreciate your patience as we strive to bring a truly scientific answer to the important question of how WTC 7 collapsed on September 11, 2001.
