Thermal expansion of girders and beams leading to an asymmetrical total collapse h
Building seven did not come apart at all
Overview of Damage to Buildings near Ground Zero
www.eng.buffalo.edu...
As WTC 7 collapsed, it fell partly on an adjacent building at 30 West Broadway, causing significant damage (Figure 3.15, south face and Figure 3.16, west face). Beams were permanently distorted by the impact (Figure 3.17).
Figure 3.15. Damage to the south face of a building at 30 West Broadway due to impact from the collapse of WTC 7

3.5 Verizon Building, 140 West Street
The collapse of World Trade Center 7 damaged the adjacent Verizon building. Damage to the west façade of that building is shown in Figure 3.18. Large segments of the WTC 7 braced framing were lodged against the Verizon building, which also suffered notable perforations in its framing and cladding. In particular, a steel column was severely distorted, presumably by debris impact (Figure 3.18, bottom right photo).
The debris field of almost null for WTC 7 is hard to simulate.
How is this contradictory? What logic drives such a statement?
But he didn't replicate...
the collapse or the East Penthouse correctly, as Mick showed earlier
the kink that formed in the east part of the roof
the flectures
the counter-clocwise rotation of the building
the fall of the north wall onto the roof of Fiterman Hall
Essentially, Hulsey himself erected a standard of precision that he wants to hold NIST to (without actually giving a reason), and then fails that standard.
Unlike NIST the UAF study found a scenario that exactly matched the observed collapse both visually and in the time domain

Again confused. If Seven building broke apart during the fall. Will look identical to this gif based on modelling carried out by Kostack studios.

Impact of the debris hitting the ground and the raising dust from the collapse is what caused the adjacent buildings to have damage. Your terminology wrong to suggest the outside came apart when falling from the top to the bottom.
My posts are about building seven, not the towers.

See you are blatantly lying again
Then how did the damage to Fiterman Hall occur near its roof?

See you are not posting about the twin towers.
Do you admit the truth movement lied.
The twin towers did not fall straight down through the path of greatest resistance.
The floor systems stripped away. Then the cores columns tumbled out after stripped of lateral support.

Neutro i don’t trust studies that lie about the construction..
This is a computer model of that connection at column 79
A21 is the girder. 79 the column
The construction pieces, highlighted in red NIST removed to allow that failure at column 79 to start. There be no beginning of the NIST progressive collapse until the push that girder east of its column seat. You can see the welded the plates to prevent such a thing from happening. Right side drawing shows it even more clearly. NIST can not remove construction and believe the replicated the failure correctly.

The building did come apart like i show in that gif.

For you to be right all the videos from that day would need to be fake.
Just because someone official says in one photograph that it damage caused by building seven does not make it so.
What not disputed- twin towers when falling down hurled steel and all sorts of debris, many street blocks away and many pieces of steel could have reached that far and landed on top of the roof of smaller buildings, even more since when building seven is in close proximity to fiterman hall that near Greenwich street

How do plates prevent steel from being weakened if sufficiently heated? The whole reason millions are spent on fire proofing insulation for steel is to protect the steel from normal office fires. If it only took steel plates, then why use insulation. How do plates prevent steel from thermal expansion and contraction that have caused structural failures. Steam piping and boilers do not use fixed plates to prevent ruptures and pipes cracking open from thermal expansion. They require expansion joints. You might lookup the pipe thickness for carbon steel pipe rated for 1500 psi steam. And with no thermal expansion joints, it will crack like an egg during heat up from thermal stress. If it’s boxed in in anyway.
Enough thermal stress can push past such plates. Or break such plates. Especially if the plates have reduced load rating from being hot.
Then how did these floor connections in WTC 5 fail?
And good thing there are two other court submitted studies that concluded fire related collapse. What was the collapse mechanisms in those studies. I think they concluded fire related collapse, but had different areas of initiation.
Quote where I ever said the NIST report was gospel. Like how your create these arguments that never existed.
Blatant intellectually dishonestly.
And how did the steel structure at the Windsor Tower above the 17 floor collapse?
Your arguments are BS.

Neutro can you not read and understand things like a normal person?
By NIST.
"However-induced buckling of floor beams and damage to connections—which caused buckling of a critical column 79) initiating collapse—occurred at temperatures below approximately 400 degrees Celsius (where thermal expansion dominates)
The steel was not hot enough to snap or break. NIST is claiming the steel expanded a few inches by thermal forces which is a different thing entirely.
