What was the outcome of the grand jury testimony?
Is it still going on?
Grand jury outcome is not out. It is still going on, in secrecy.
To what, how, when, who and why i would recommend answers from Mick Harrison:

The Pre-collapse and Inward Bowing of WTC 2

Collapse of the World Trade Centre
www.cs.mcgill.ca...
The situation was similar in 2 WTC. In both towers, perimeter columns and floors were also weakened by the heat of the fires, causing the floors to sag and exerting an inward force on exterior walls of the building.
At 9:59 am, the sagging floors finally caused the eastern face of 2 WTC to buckle, transferring its loads back to the failing core through the hat truss and initiating the collapse. At 10:28 the south wall of 1 WTC buckled, with similar consequences. After collapse ensued, the total collapse of the towers was inevitable due to the enormous weight of the towers above the impact areas.
A combination of three factors allowed the north tower to remain standing longer: the region of impact was higher (so the gravity load on the most damaged area was lighter); the speed of the plane was lower (so there was less impact damage); and the affected floors had had their fire proofing partially upgraded.

Seems like proof the towers didn't 'fall down'.

How about you state a clear theory and provide supporting arguments and evidence?

Really don’t care . . .
That's why you are so strangely ignorant.

But you cannot cite the missed evidence and create a logical argument something other than drooping and contraction floor trusses caused the outer columns to bow inward and buckled to initiate the collapse? The bowing and buckling is part of the video record. Where is the video of columns being cut?

The Pre-collapse and Inward Bowing of WTC 1 is non-existent. Yes?
I don’t know, you tell me. How many people were filming that day?
Unless you have actual evidence of columns cut by pyrotechnics. If your making allegations, it’s up to you to cite the physical evidence.
A lot, after WTC 2, all cameras pointed to 1. Inward bowing is what was not witnessed prior collapse initiated.
Accounts of Tower Structural Instability and Expected Collapse
The North Tower

• At 9:30 am, a FDNY Chief Officer inside WTC 1 feels the building move and makes the decision that the building is no longer safe.
• At 9:49 am, NYPD helicopters provide a radio report stating that “large pieces” are falling from WTC 2.
• At 10:07 am, NYPD aviation units warn that WTC 1 may collapse.
• At 10:20 am, NYPD aviation unit reports that WTC 1 is leaning to the south.

NYPD Aviation Units: Minutes after the south tower collapsed at the World Trade Center, police helicopters hovered near the remaining tower to check its condition. "About 15 floors down from the top, it looks like it's glowing red," the pilot of one helicopter, Aviation 14, radioed at 10:07 a.m. "It's inevitable."
Seconds later, another pilot reported: "I don't think this has too much longer to go. I would evacuate all people within the area of that second building." Source
10:20 NYPD – Aviation 14 states the WTC 1 is leaning. (NYPD, McKinsey & Company) NIST NCSTAR 1-8, p. 227
Federal engineering investigators studying the destruction of the World Trade Center's twin towers on Sept. 11 said New York Police Department aviation units reported an inward bowing of the buildings' columns in the minutes before they collapsed, a signal they were about to fall.
Need i remind you of the loud booms heard, accompanied with WTC 2 collapse?
Katie Bender's family commemorate 20 years since Royal Canberra Hospital implosion
www.illawarramercury.com.au...
Seconds after the explosion on that Sunday afternoon, Katie was was killed instantly by a steel fragment sent flying from 430 metres across the lake. It was thought to be travelling at 140km/h.
Why would there not be booms from a large building on fire and collapsing. Everything from industrial air conditioning units exploding, floor slabs giving way, and floor connections braking. You mean loud booms like a trash truck dumping metal dumpsters? As in metal crashing into metal.

I'll ask this again: Is this bowing witnessed also on WTC 1?
I'll ask why bowing doesn't compute. Because you say so?
