The actual controlled demolition used subterranean nuclear devices that were installed and used via delivery tunnels running from WTC#7 to the towers. These nukes brought down the towers into a crater. The smoldering red hot debris burned for almost a month underground after the attack.

Right. That's why the sears tower was evacuated at the same time. They used the same command and control protocols.
The demolition system was indeed installed during construction.
They were nuclear devices similar to those used to create underground gas storage cavities.
They were made as non-military nuclear devices for mining but were repurposed for skyscraper demolitions.

no, just for the biggest buildings in the 70s. they were too large for conv. exp. to take down safely.
other scrapers have conventional plans.
