yet it seems I am the only one quoting the 10,000+ page report.....
I noticed you have the word NIST attached to your quote, yet you leave off the ADDRESS where it comes from within the report....I include ALL nomenclatures so all you duhbunkers can go look.....WHERE is your address?

towers fell in 10 and 12 seconds.

the so-called high temp WTC steel that DID fail????

Where is your evidence it was "dustified" - please explain the process to "dustify" steel - also explain where the 200k tons of dust went!
??? what makes you think there should be 2 x 100-120m piles of rubble?
no proof it turned to dust either...
Well, WTC 1 & 2 did not fall at free fall velocity - simply watching video's of them falling clearly shows that!
I have watched her nonsense, why don't you watch
Which totally destroys Wood'd claims...
I have, and there is zero evidence of engine blocks melting.... where is the pool of melted engine block for starters!
Without giving us the ADDRESS where it comes from within the report.
In the future could you refer to the steel
I also love when people use debunking sites for reference
"the phenomenon that we saw on 9/11 that brought this particular building down was really thermal expansion, which occurs at lower temperatures."
don't people of science get awards for discovering NEW physics??????
If we had this great weapon why didn't dustify Osama in his house in Pakistan?
Why didn't we dustify all those Taliban bases in the middle on the night? Whose going to blame the US for piles of dust and rocks in the desert?
And yet not a peep about this weapon that could save us from asteroids.
Funny how conspiracy theories always leave out details like that.
Shyam Sunder at 2008 NIST technical briefing
"the phenomenon that we saw on 9/11 that brought this particular building down was really thermal expansion, which occurs at lower temperatures."
real 'truthers' have no theories/claims....they demand the supporting evidence of the already in-place claims pushed as truth.
So, Ms. Woods claims a beam from space fell the towers.....well, the 2008 NIST hypothesis crew claims a brand new never before seen physics phenomenon fell WTC7 equal to gravity for 105 vertical feet in a unified descent, symmetrically, within the first 1/3 of it's 6.5 second collapse.
Whats funny about this is the "trolls" or "disinformants" doing whatever they can do divert attention from the fact that the collapse CAN NOT be explained the way any official report tries to.
And you are an expert in any one of the fields that pertain to the collapse?
Why would anyone in court of law or scientific community believe you?
he question should be why this conclusion wasnt investigated beyond that point

Dear Mr. Bob
This letter serves a the final response to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request (Log#10-194) to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in which you requested
in connection with its investigation for the technical cause of the collapse of the World Trade Center Tower and World Trade Center Building 7 on September 1,200I:
'1. All input and results files of the ANSYS 16 story collapse initiation model with detailed connection models that were used to analyze the structural response to thermal loads, break element source code, ANSYS script files for the break element s, custom executable ANSYS file, and all Excel spreadsheets and other supporting calculations used to develop floor connection failure modes and capacities.
2. All input files with connection material properties and all results flies of the LS-DYNA 47-story global collapse model that were used to simulate sequential structural failures leading to collapse and all Excel spreadsheets and other supporting calculations used to develop floor connection failure modes and capacities."
NIST is withholding sixty-eight thousand, two hundred and forty-six (68,246) file. These records are currently exempt from disclosure under section (b)(3) of the FOlA., 5 .S.C § 552 (b)(3). Exemption (b)(3) permits an agency to withhold records in an agency's possession which are records that are "specifically exempted from disclosure by statute (other than 5 .S.C552(b», provided that such statute (A) requires that the matters be withheld from the public in such a manner as to leave no discretion on the issue, or (B) establishes particular criteria for
withholding or refers to particular types of matters to be ...withheld."
The statute underlying the (b)(3) exemption in this case is the at National Construction Safety Team (1 C T) Act, 15 .S.. § 7301 et seq_ Section 12 of the CST Act (ISS_C § 7311) provides that it applies to the activities of 1ST in response to the attacks of September I ), 200 I. Section 7(d) of the NIST Act (15 U.S.C § 7306(d», exempts from disclosure. information received by 1ST in the course of investigations regarding building failures if the Director finds that the disclosure of the information might jeopardize public safety. On July 9 2009 the Director of NIST determined that release of the withheld information might' jeopardize public safety. Therefore, these records are being withheld.
NlST

I sayd this before: If you can rule out everything else, whats left must be the case.
Why would anyone in court of law or scientific community believe you?
After 10 years all they have are Youtube videos and speculation.
Metal processing(and steel was the main material the towers were built of) was part of my education.
uhm.....BECAUSE of science and facts.
In this Country, one entity was charged by Congress to scientifically find out how and why three buildings fell on 9-11....no one else.

That doen't in any way qualify you to determine if or when a steel beam of a particular shape will fail.
Did you see the report by a testing facility where they built a floor section identical to WTC and subjected it to fire?
I think that trumps your 'part' of education that dealt with 'metal processing'.
Just another example of internet experts who do not know what they are talking about.
That would be YOUR perception of what you BELIEVE to be the fact.
NCSTAR 1-1 xxiii "Determine how and why WTC 1 and WTC 2 collapsed following initial impacts and why and how WTC 7 collapsed....The NIST WTC investigation was conducted under the authority of the National Construction Safety Team Act (Public Law 107-231)
Nor have you examined the evidence first hand.
