The IR camera is measuring skin temperature, not fire temperature in the building.

very true..while I do beleive thermite may have been used this bit of ''evidence'' is kinda very debunkable and not very accurate like said above..When I first read this i went and found my IR thermometer,and lit a ciggarette...The flame from the lighter was 162 F. and cherry was 530F. so take stuff like this with a huge grain of salt..
With cigarettes the situation was quite dif
ferent. No essential differences could be noted
among the various brands of cigarette studied
(Groups a-/). The highest temperature recorded,
812°C., was in a Turkish cigarette. The maximal
temperature at the tip was always somewhat low
er. In a thin cigarette with a paper mouthpiece,
the highest temperature, 786°C., was recorded at
the base. Temperature in the combustion zone
was, on the average, 650°C.

I bet they used chemical or plasma cutters to weaken the structure so it would collapse.
Chemical cutters are used by oil service branches offshore and onshore and by the army. They are light in weight and easy to put in place. The plasma would be in very small steal tubes connected to a pressure charge to squeeze out the chemicals on to a steal structure.
This stuff works a lot like Termite but it cools of very fast after exposure to metal. This plasma is very hard to detect because it is metal exposed to a chemical creating a plasma. This plasma is just ha very hot metal fluid that will burn into the metal structure.
