9/11 Heat: Analyzing the Fall of the Giant Twin Towers

Did you ever wonder how the World Trade Center fell as it appeared? It is believed the primarily due to the heat of the burning fuel and inadequate construction materials and design that it fell. As it is shown on how it all started but conspiracies on how it slowly crumbled how it did. There are plenty of other opinions on this matter but I believe it happened that way. Many reasons that we can’t explain but to think it is the truth.
There are plenty of different materials now days that look like what we all think they should be. “Is that the tops of the trusses were embedded in the concrete slab, so even if a truss was heated to the point of failure, even if it was dripping molten steel, the concrete slab would still hold the truss up and it could not possibly fall as indicated in the animation.” (The Collapse: An Engineer’s Perspective) “Column buckling requires energy, and deforming steel beyond the elastic range dissipates energy. But free fall—or gravitational acceleration—converts gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy with nothing left to perform the mechanical work required to squash a structural steel frame supporting 40 stories.” (The Pacifica Radio) The material they had used was flammable. The metal used for construction appeared to be steel, but was actually a cheaper alternative. The designers wanted to save some money so they had use a cheaper version of a similar type of steel material, which caused the building to crumble easily. With this being said as one pillar had fell the rest fell with it like a domino destroying everything in a row which had caused the top of the building at first.

.... With even bombs on board the plane with the impact would increase the damage of the design to hold up the tower. There are many other conspiracies with how this even had happen, but with the tower collapsing in its final stage, the best reason to see it as the flames had slowly burn down the inside. You know that the planes impact can’t be clearly the reason it collapsed because after the crash the tower had not collapsed yet but due to over time. This event became one of the nightmares of America and a historical event in this generation that all of us will remember to this day. With its memorial in New York for us to always see we will always remember the day of 9/11. It also increases our future hope as we will be more cautious on security and make America stronger. We will remember the ones who sacrificed their lives that day in the engraving of the memorial.
