WTC 6 was severely damaged on September 11 with two holes that extend the height of the building. The photo, from directly overhead WTC 6 on September 23, shows a large crater in the center of the building, and a smaller one in the southeast end (bottom of photo). The holes had remarkably clean profiles, with the same region punched out of each floor. The shapes of the holes may provide clues about the destruction of the North Tower.
WTC 6 was demolished as part of the clean-up of Ground Zero. FEMA, the agency charged with investigating the disaster, did not collect any data on this building.

That's some building!

I wouldn’t worry too much about the effects on the truth movement. It’s not going anywhere anyways.

Here are once again, Jim Hoffman’s calculation, as shown on page eight of this thread:
WTC single tower energy analysis — KWH source (+) or sink (-)
(+) 111,000 falling of mass (1.97e11 g falling average of 207 m)
(-) 135,000 crushing of concrete (9e10 g to 60 micron powder)
ignoring water vaporization
(-) 400,000 heating of gasses (2e9 g air from 300 to 1020 K)
(-) 11,300,000 heating of suspended concrete (9e10 g from 300 to 1020 K)
assuming water vaporization sink was not supply-limited
(-) 1,496,000 vaporization of water (2.38e9 g water)
(-) 41,000 heating of gasses (2e9 g air from 300 to 373 K)
(-) 1,145,000 heating of suspended concrete (9e10 g from 300 to 373 K)

The amount of energy required to expand the North Tower's dust cloud was many times the entire potential energy of the tower's elevated mass due to gravity.

So i checked out your source. All these estimates relate to the energy contained in the dust cloud. The jist of the argument of the source is that:
The amount of energy required to expand the North Tower's dust cloud was many times the entire potential energy of the tower's elevated mass due to gravity.
So from all that you come to the conclusion it was a H bomb.
WTC7 dust cloud energy > WTC7 potential energy ---> magic ----> H bomb.

Bullshiit!!
The message i get from you is that we are worthless and that holograms and CGI hit the towers, then H-bombs were used.
It's not the truth movement that's worthless, it's people like you bent on spreading fallacies and bad news and demoralize the truth movement. People like Bush love your kind ..... me ..... not so much.

Either prove BOTH fallout and EMP or drop it.

except since there was no radioactive fallout, EMP

Question for discussion. Has anyone figured out the amount for force that would be needed to damage to core to failure? Can that that be figured out with the information out there? On how many floors would the core have to be damaged to failure to cause global collapse?
Preliminary Findings
. A 500 mph engine impact against an exterior wall panel results in a
penetration of the exterior wall and failure of perimeter columns. If the
engine does not impact a floor slab, the majority of the engine core
remains intact through the exterior wall penetration with a reduction in
velocity of about 10% and 20%. The residual velocity and mass of the
engine after penetration of the exterior wall are sufficient to fail a core
column in a direct impact condition. Interaction with additional interior
building contents, or a misaligned impact against the core column,
could change this result .
. A normal impact of the exterior wall by an empty wing segment
produces significant damage to the exterior columns but not necessarily
complete failure. A fuel-filled wing section impact results in extensive
damage to the exterior wall, including complete failure of the exterior
columns. This is consistent with photographs showing the exterior
damage to the towers due to impact.
Preliminary Findings, cont.
. At room temperature, global instability of the intact tower occurs when
five floors are removed from the tower model. At column temperatures
of 600ºC, the removal of four floors induces global instability.
. When 15 core columns are assumed severed, it is likely that column
splices below the hat truss will fail due to the large tensile loads in the
columns. When only 8 core columns are assumed severed, the splices
may fail; however, the results are not conclusive.
. The tower maintained its stability with the removal of columns in the
exterior walls and core columns representative of aircraft impact and
also after losing columns in the south wall due to fire effects with some
reserve capacity left, indicating that additional weakening or loss of
other structural members is needed to collapse the tower.
