Richard Gage, AIA, Architect, the founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, said, "We cannot truly understand what happened in these historical structural failure events when we are not allowed access to the construction documents." Gage believes that, given the profound differences in the official collapse theories, the need for more investigation is clear. "First they come up with the "pancake theory", then they changed it to the "column failure theory". We don't believe that either of those theories are supported by the available evidence."Groups releasing the plans cite support for the demolition theory in their organizations and elsewhere by a variety of professionals including structural and civil engineers, architects, and physicists. Supporters point to several features which they say cannot be explained by a gravity-driven collapse, including the speed, symmetry, explosiveness, thoroughness of pulverization, and totality of these events, and numerous reports of molten metal pools in the debris piles.

The thing that bothers me is that the government could squash a lot of the conspiracy theories surrounding 911 by just admitting that Building 7 was demolished via order of Silverstein. IMHO, both he and the gov't are doing this country a disservice by letting conspiracy theorists get support for oddball claims by not simply stating the truth. Instead, what we'll get is coverup for decades, and in 2041 they'll acknowledge that it was a controlled demolition.I am NOT a conspiracy theorist. I don't believe in some massive gov't plot and subsequent coverup, but I'd be a complete fool to believe that Building 7 collapsed due to "structural damage".

Yes... please admit that WTC 7 was demolished using explosives..... Please Please Please!!!Because we all know that 47 story buildings can be wired for demolition in just a few hours

If you believe that these buildings were brought down by a controlled demolition then you have to believe that the explosives were placed at the levels where the planes crashed. Would this have been done before or after the planes flew into the buildings?<a class="user" href="http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/videos/docs/south_tower_collapse.mpeg">http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/videos/docs/south_tower_collapse.mpeg</a>Dr Gage himself says: "The only theory that is supported by the evidence is controlled demolition with explosives," Gage says. "You could never get a collapse event of that speed through 80 floors of intact steel structure. The laws of physics simply don't allow it."Watch how the building collapsed in the video. Then ask yourself again when and where those "controlled demolition explosives" were placed. I'm sorry, but this theory is clearly wrong.

Twin Towers' Designers Anticipated Jet Impacts Like September 11th'sFrank A. Demartini, on-site construction manager for the World Trade Center, spoke of the resilience of the towers in an interview recorded on January 25, 2001."The building was designed to have a fully loaded 707 crash into it. That was the largest plane at the time. I believe that the building probably could sustain multiple impacts of jetliners because this structure is like the mosquito netting on your screen door -- this intense grid -- and the jet plane is just a pencil puncturing that screen netting. It really does nothing to the screen netting."Link: <a class="user" href="http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/analysis/design.html">http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/analysis/design.html</a>The following is a link to the video in which Mr. Demartini makes this statement: Link: <a class="user" href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=scQPx539c7M">http://youtube.com/watch?v=scQPx539c7M</a>

imus i respectfully disagree. Regardless if the speed of fall was free fall or 2 seconds slower, those towers fell far too fast to have happened as a result of airplanes and fires. I'm as experienced as anyone with these matters and that's my professional (Licensed Civil Engineer's) opinion. I believe the folks agreeing with you are the kooks.
