They would not get planning permission to build these buildings if it was not safe against fire.
The argument for wtc7 is just a joke, they would not of got planning permission if authorities thought it could fall down witha small fire.
The argument is pure rubbish, just like something like evolution. These things are told to us like people are stupid.

WTC 7 was not struck by an airplane. But if you want to go on believing that an appartment building in China is more resiliant than WTC 7 which was built in the 80s go right ahead. If you want to believe the NIST report that contains contradictions exageration of data errors and must have used the guide for fires and explosion investigation as toilet paper keep on wearing your tinfoil hat.
If I were to believe any wild claim a WMD_2008 makes on a conspiracy site I might as well wear your tinfoil hat.edit on 18-11-2010 by Cassius666 because: (no reason given)

This is a tragedy with 42 lives lost. It seems some want to use it as a comparison to the WTC - every building, fire and incident is different!! This should be moved to Breaking news so everyone interested can comment about this incident - not another that has nothing to do with it.

LOOK at the picture CONCRETE CORE look at the collapsed steelwork around it
Actually A FEW steelframed buildings have collapsed over the years not as high as wtc1 and wtc2 but steelframed.

Will try to make this simple so even you can understand this picture
The building had a concrete core THE PILE OF TANGLED STEELWORK THAT A BLIND MAN COULD SEE!!!! collapsed after only two and a half hours THE CONCRETE AND CONCRETE COVERED STEEL SURVIVED the unprotected steel collapsed DUE TO THE FIRE NO PLANE RQUIRED.
OH RE YOUR EXPERTS lookup KADER TOY FACTORY FIRE then STFU!!!
This will save you having to look

On the other hand, the reinforced concrete central core, columns, waffle slabs and transfer structures performed very well in such a severe fire. It is clear that the structural integrity and redundancy of the remaining parts of the building provided the overall stability of the building
