Sonny boy I am retired from working on those structures and have forgotten more than you think you know . Your smart attitude says much about you . I haven't set in an office somewhere or turned burgers for a living like some on here . I know about the structures and floor pans and composite construction and safety factors that are figured into these buildings .Steel structures don't just fall from sporadic fires spread from floor to floor . There isn't enough fuel in an office building to create that much heat .In an apartment building there is a lot more fuel such as clothes bedding and a higher concentration of furniture .

You are wrong (what can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence).

From your posts your obliviously a disinfo agent (congratulations) None the less, trying to derail a thread by saying theres ufo's in the videos is working against you. You should try to talk about the subject at hand if you truly want to do your job.
But there is a UFO in the video. You got suckered in UFO and all (congratulations). The black spots that appear are just the windows breaking as the building deforms. There are no explosions.

I never said thermite was placed on the roof. You just made that up.
5 and 6 had holes burned through them caused by the falling superheated debris.
I don't pretend to know the cause of such super heat. I do know that it wasn't jet fuel or office fires.

So you looked at the data .. What did it say exactly ? And exactly where were the fires located and where was the smoke ? Fire that burns intensely needs plenty of oxygen and could not have received a free flow of oxygen from a building with all of the glass still in it . The facade of the building mostly intact and air distribution to the complete building would be impaired by partitions . The oxygen within the building would not have been replenished to supported massive fires .Also safety factors built into the steel structure would allow for some loss of strength .
The office fire demonstration was the largest British Steel compartment fire test incorporating a floor space 18m wide and up to 10m deep (135m2). It was conducted on the first floor in the North East corner and simulated a typical open plan office with real office equipment (and some wood cribs) providing a total fire load density of 46kg/m2. The area of ventilation was equal to 20% of the floor area. [197] The height of the compartment was 4.0m. In this test only the columns were protected. The unprotected beams achieved temperatures of up to 1150°C

I wouldn't want you to try it in a full sized room but how long do you think it would take for all of the Oxygen in a floor to be consumed by fire . Put a lit match in a glass jar with some paper put the lid on and see how long it burns. See if the paper burns up . See how hot the lid gets . The building was closed up with the windows still in it ..
