COVERUP AT GROUND ZERO:
Fire Engineering has good reason to believe that the “official investigation” blessed by FEMA and run by the American Society of Civil Engineers is a
half-baked farce that may already have been
commandeered by political forces whose primary interests, to put it mildly, lie far afield of full disclosure. --

THE JET FUEL; HOW HOT DID IT HEAT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER?

“The temperature of the fire at the WTC was not unusual, and it was
most definitely not capable of melting steel.”

"They showed us many fascinating slides" [Eaton] continued, "ranging from
molten
metal which was
still red hot weeks after the event, to 4-inch thick steel plates sheared
and bent in the disaster".
--Structural Engineer, 3. september, 2002, s. 6

"Fires are still actively burning and the smoke is very intense. In some pockets now being uncovered, they are finding
molten steel."

"
The condition of the steel in the wreckage of the WTC towers (i.e., whether it was in a molten state or not) was irrelevant to the investigation of the collapse since it does not provide any conclusive information on the condition of the steel when the WTC towers were standing."

"... the official conclusion that NIST arrived at is questionable." --

"Steven Jones’ call for a “serious investigation” of the hypothesis that the WTC 7 and the Twin Towers were brought down . . . through the use of pre-positioned cutter-charges” must be the rallying cry for all building design experts to speak out." --
