Wiki
The first building to apply the tube-frame construction was the DeWitt-Chestnut apartment building which (Fazlur) Khan designed and was completed in Chicago by 1963. This laid the foundations for the tube structures of many other later skyscrapers, including his own John Hancock Center and Willis (Sears) Tower, and can been seen in the construction of the World Trade Center, Petronas Towers, Jin Mao Building, and most other supertall skyscrapers since the 1960s.

There is no issues on WTC 7 that hasn't been answered.

Can aerosol cans, CRT monitors, bodies, cleaning supplies, or computers do this:

That glass was 1-2 inches thick. Those marble panels weigh hundreds of pounds. Elevators were also destroyed on the other side of the lobby from the explosions.

I think the first responders, survivors, and images prove your statement to be false.
The only thing that needs to be said about WTC7:

If fire could do the above, CD companies would use fire instead of explosives. Fire cannot do the above, therefore it could only be accomplished by one means: explosives, period.

Thanks for misrepresenting the pictues. Truther tactics.

You do know that firefighter did break down windows glasses to enter the building to get inside faster. Aid in evacuation of the building as quickly as possible.

The firefighters who were there that day saved thousands of lives.

As known and TESTIFIED by witnesses in the lobby of the WTC towers, a fire ball ignited the jet fuel that spilled into the elevator shafts as the plane impacted the building.

Sorry, but I've spoken to the first responders who were there on 9/11/2001.
They do not AGREE with anything the truth movement has offered.

"like an explosion" doesnt mean "it was explosives".

YOU should actually educate yourself about the building's constructions

Even firefighters would rather enter a wood building than a steel one when its one fire.
Originally posted by RipCurl
Fire's can indeed cause steel buildings to collapse. And the WTC towers were one of many that have done so.
Originally posted by RipCurl
also as to why CD companies do not use fire. YOU CANT control fire through a building. you know that letter "C" in CD . it means CONTROLLED.

How do you like the "truther tactics" now?

If those windows were "blown out by a blast" and they were up to 2" thick then why is all the glass just laying there at the foot of the window? Wouldn't a blast strong enough to blow out a 2" thick piece of glass have sent the glass flying?
Just asking questions.

The force of any explosion will determine the distance any debris travels. The force was obviously enough to break the glass, but not send it flying across Manhattan.

... Shanksville, since when do planes vaporize when impacting an object or the ground? Who waved a (fairy tale) magic wand and sprinkled pixie dust that flouted real, objective PHYSICS on that day only? Where the # were the planes and their passengers, contents? Such a total disappearance, or "vaporizing," never happened before or since 9/11. Was there some kind of super, super-secret technology used? I highly doubt it, but I guess one never really knows in a paradigm of secrecy-BASED government.

United 93 Still Airborne After Alleged Crash - According To ATC/Radar
04/28/09 (PilotsFor911Truth.org) - Recently it has been brought to our attention that Air Traffic Control (ATC) transcripts reveal United 93 as being airborne after it's alleged crash. Similar scenarios have been offered with regard to American 77 and American 11 showing an aircraft target continuing past its alleged crash point in the case of American 11, or past the turn-around point in the case of American 77. However, both these issues can be easily explained by "Coast Mode" radar tracking. This is not the case with United 93.
Radar Coast Mode activates when a transponder is inoperative (or turned off) and primary radar tracking is lost, which enables ATC to have some sort of reference of the flight after losing radar coverage of the physical aircraft. When an aircraft target enters "Coast Mode", ATC is alerted in the form of a blue tag on the target as well as the tag letters switching to CST. ATC will readily recognize when an aircraft enters "Coast Mode".
According to National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Flight Path Study, United 93 allegedly impacted the ground at 10:03am, September 11, 2001. The following transcript excerpts are provided by the Federal Aviation Administration. It is a conversation between Air Traffic Control System Command Center - East, Management Officers (ntmo-e) and other various facilities. The conversation is as follows in real time:
