Arthur , why do you constantly bring this disinformation up? The same thing, time and time again. The only structure that could be considered a tube is the elevator shafts , a small part of the massive core.

I posted links to a few of you're own CT sites which call it a tube within a tube. The architect calls it a tube within a tube. Who are you to say it isn't?

They would be a tube-within-a-tube design. The exterior skin would feature columns two-feet square, spaced 4 feet 8-7/8 inches apart (possibly more), resulting in a much stronger design (5 times minimum), while permitting larger windows admitting more natural sunlight. The core would feature the same columns as the exterior skin, and its walls would be of reinforced concrete.

Structural System
1 and 2 World Trade Center used the so-called tube within a tube architecture, in which closely-spaced external columns form the building's perimeter walls, and a dense bundle of columns forms its core. Tall buildings have to resist primarily two kinds of forces: lateral loading (horizontal force) due mainly to the wind, and gravity loading (downward force) due to the building's weight. The tube within a tube design uses a specially reinforced perimeter wall to resist all lateral loading and some of the gravity loading, and a heavily reinforced central core to resist the bulk of the gravity loading. The floors and hat truss completed the structure, spanning the ring of space between the perimeter wall and the core, and transmitting lateral forces between those structures.

The tube within a tube architecture was relatively new at the time the Twin Towers were built, but has since been widely employed in the design of new skyscrapers. In fact most of the world's tallest buildings use it, including:

The Sears Tower (1450 ft)
The World Trade Center Towers (1350 ft)
The Standard Oil of Indiana Building (1125 ft)
The John Hancock Center (1105 ft)

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/index.html

The WTC is topical tube-in-tube structure system, whose outer tube is dense-columns-deep-beams system. The width of the column is 476.25mm while the space between columns is just 558.8mm. The thickness of beams is 1219.2mm. In order to simplify the numerical model and decrease the degree of freedom, the outer dense-columns-deep-beams tube system and inner steel truss tube system are approached with shell elements. The thickness of shell elements is established with equivalent section method. Such approximate tube has the same stiffness of global bending and axial deformation as the real structure, while the local bending stiffness of structure elements is not consisted with the real condition. Since the primary deformation of tube-in-tube structure system is global bending and axial compression deformation, this approximate method should be feasible.

NIST's collapse creed, repeated eleven times with identical wording (and once with a slightly different one) in the report of project 6 dealing with the collapse sequences, is this:

"The change in potential energy due to downward movement of building mass above the buckled columns exceeded the strain energy that could have been absorbed by the structure. Global collapse then ensued." [10]

And after 6 months since the Final Report not ONE reputable Engineering firm or Architectural firm has claimed that that statment is in error.

Metamars

Hoffman makes several assertions, but the KEY ones are that it took MORE energy to crush the concrete to an average 60 micron size than was in the total PE of the towers.

The KEY to this assertion is that the average size was 60 microns.

There IS NO PROOF FOR THIS ASSERTION.

The other assertions have to do with the EXPANSION of the dust cloud, which Hoffman ASSUMES is driven by heat.

There is NO PROOF the cloud was Prognostic in nature (his 1,000+ K average temperature)

Thus NONE of his assertions hold up.

He's a fool, but you're a WORSE fool for believing his BS and claiming for 6 months that it doesn't STINK.

Arthur

What about the following don't you understand?

QUOTE
As has been reiterated before, the energy sink associated with heating far exceeded that of grinding/puverisation.

Metamars,

His assertions on the HEAT of the material don't hold up.
The EXPANSION of the cloud was NOT driven by heat because the CLOUD was NOT pyroclastic.

What is it about this you don't understand?

Arthur

Is anyone keeping a record of all his errors?

1) No Pyroclastic flow of 1000 d C

2) Doctored photo

3) Heat produced by collapse and insulated by debris not seen as possibility for glowing metals.

4) Does not factor in large hole in building 7

6) Does not factor in penthouse collapse before collapse

7) Does not factor in possible thermite created with existing building/office/aircraft debris

8) Does not factor in construction of the WTC when showing photos of poured concrete buildings which fell over on their side

9) Does not factor in the aircraft impact/tube in a tube construction/blown off fireproofing when talking about "No Previous Steel-frame Skyscraper Collapses Due to Fires, None"

10) "Squib" not seen before collapse begins

11) Does not factor in pressure build up of air and debris to explain the "Squibs"

12) Does not calculate how many "Squibs" would be seen if the towers were in fact blown up.

13) Does not take into account the slow and progressive effects of weakening columns and sagging trusses which heated then cooled to explain how the top half of the core fell.

14) Did not take into account the sound an acre of concrete and steel floor make when they fall on one another to explain fireman's accounts

15) Did not read the fireman's accounts which said they realized the sound was the building coming down

16) Did not factor in the unique construction and forces acted upon that unique construction when considering the distance debris traveled

17) Lied about the context in which Manning made his comment.

18) Took Bazant and Zhou quote out of context. They asked "designed to withstand as a whole the forces caused by a horizontal impact of a large commercial aircraft. So why did a total collapse occur?" then answered the question.

19) The "whistle-blower" actually works in a whole different department and had nothing to do with the investigation.

Did I miss something?

You're either confusing me with somebody else, or else lying through your teeth. E.g., I don't even know who Manning is, or what he said.

Which is it? Lying or confusion?

Among the many errors, doctored photo, and misquotes within Jones paper, Manning is one of the many people Jones blatantly misquoted in his paper. Under section 9.
Jones did some creative writing and felt the Mannings paper needed some spicing up so he felt the need to rewrite it.


http://www.physics.byu.edu/research/energy/htm7.html
Of cource Jones was caught red handed.

http://www.911myths.com/html/fire_engineering.html


Almost as bad as what he does with FEMA's paper where he adds the words fire/damage-caused collapse to make it seem like FEMA says something which it doesn't.

Or where he quotes Eagar by saying "This is why the temperatures in a residential fire are usually in the 500 °C to 650 °C range"
But he edits out Eagar from the same paragraph "Factors such as flame volume and quantity of soot decrease the radiative heat loss in the fire, moving the temperature closer to the maximum of 1,000°C."

Or where he edits Eagar by stating
"Even with its strength halved, the steel could still support two to three times the stresses imposed by a 650 °C fire." (Eagar and Musso, 2001; emphasis added.)"

But Jones cuts out the next paragraph
"The temperature of the fire was not uniform everywhere, and the temperature on the outside of the box columns was clearly lower than on the side facing the fire. The temperature along the 18 m long joists was certainly not uniform. Given the thermal expansion of steel, a 150°C temperature difference from one location to another will produce yield-level residual stresses. This produced distortions in the slender structural steel, which resulted in buckling failures. Thus, the failure of the steel was due to two factors: loss of strength due to the temperature of the fire, and loss of structural integrity due to distortion of the steel from the non-uniform temperatures in the fire."

Or where he edits out from Stephen Gregory

"I don't know if that means anything. I mean, I equate it to the building cowing down and pushing things down, it could have been electrical explosions, it could have been whatever."

Or where he quotes from Barnett
"Fire and the structural damage …would not explain steel members in the debris pile that appear to have been partly evaporated" (Jones then goes on.... "observed “partly evaporated” steel members is particularly upsetting to the official theory, since fires involving paper, office materials, even diesel fuel, cannot generate temperatures anywhere near the ~5,180oF (~2860oC) needed to evaporate steel."

Yet had Jones read his OWN PAPER he would of seen the temps were no where near 2860C under section 2 where he talks about temps of 1000C. In fact the later tests on the steel stated "observations indicate that steel had experienced temperature between 550 and 850C" and the slag of around 940C.
http://www.me.wpi.edu/MTE/People/imsm.html

Jones of course doesn't seem to realize that Gyp board dust, heating oil etc. are a major source of sulfer.

This is just a sample of Jones many errors. I haven't even gone into depth on errors with timing with building 7, or the section on the drop of the Antenna (which he recently edited to address his major error on the NIST report).

Jones has to know what he's was doing.

Check out Jones doctored photo again on section 1
http://www.physics.byu.edu/research/energy/htm7.html
I guess the original wasn't good enough so Jones needed to "tweak" the white "blobs".

Now, look at the sentence before the "Box within a Box" sentence:

They decided to build long "tubes,"

NOTE TUBES PLURAL

where all the support columns would be around the outside of the building

THAT's THE OUTER TUBE

and at the central core of the building.

THATS the INNER TUBE

You seem to be forgetting that a BOX is simply a TUBE that is closed at both ends.
In this case the bottom floor and the roof make up the ends of the "BOX".

So when they say Box within a Box they are saying the SAME as Tube within a Tube.

That is how it was built and that's what its called.

I had an interesting conversation with the author Mr. Steinback who wrote an article on the Scholars for 9/11 Truth. Although Steinback found many of their claims interesting he admitted he didn't really have time to research the claims.
Like
"Why has there been no investigation of BBC reports that five of the alleged 9/11 hijackers were alive and accounted for after the event?"

I showed him the Der Spiegel article and explained some of Griffins/Jones various other problems.
http://service.spiegel.de/cache/internatio...65160-2,00.html

He stated that "I too, thought that claim was pretty extreme, but I hadn't found the
rebuttal by the time I had to go to print." But Steinback did feel there were still some unanswered questions. I agreed but went on to explain Jones and Griffins many other errors.

It was so easy to pick apart Griffin's paper on the site.
I'm hoping Steinback realized after our conversion that these guys read more like scam-artists than "scholars for truth".

Because you think it was the government without one shred of evidence it was. If it was blown up it still could have been terrorist. You have no evidence pointing at anyone.

when you use only the evidence that convicts a murderer, you are a successful prosecutor.

when you use only evidence that points to a conspiracy, it may be because there is a conspiracy. in which case, although you are a conspiracy theorist, you are right about the conspiracy.

Common Sense mentioned Thermite.  Is this a proposed explanation?? Thermite would definately explain it - this is used in incendiary explosive devices that I mentioned  before (that can easily melt steel).  But its improbable that aluminum and rust would randomly mix in just the right way ( and in the right proportions) to trigger a large thermite reaction in the building. Thermite is also not used in controlled demolitions either. I dont see how that would make sense either way.


I'm not aware of thermite being used in controlled demolition either, although I don't claim to be an expert in CD. I know that RDX is used extensively in CD, which isn't thermite.

Thermite is not a controlled method of taking out a structure. It's used to melt military vehicles that have to be abandoned to the enemy, for welding things like railroad tracks together, etc.

If anyone wishes to explain why and how they think thermite was used in a controlled demolition of the WTC or other buildings I'd be interested in hearing about it.

Here's an example of the complexity involved in a CD.

http://www.controlled-demolition.com/defau...=20030225133807

"CDI’s 12 person loading crew took twenty four days to place 4,118 separate charges in 1,100 locations on columns on nine levels of the complex. Over 36,000 ft of detonating cord and 4,512 non-electric delay elements were installed in CDI’s implosion initiation system, some to create the 36 primary implosion sequence and another 216 micro-delays to keep down the detonation overpressure from the 2,728 lb of explosives which would be detonated during the demolition."

That you must make money from these sites:
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/index.html
http://911research.wtc7.net/talks/wtc/trussesre.html

That you spam so much you don’t expect people to check your sources.

The outer structure might be considered a tube the core certainly was not.

If morons like you didn't repeatedly say stupid thing like "It's not a tube within a tube" without checking first, I wouldn't have to repeat the same post making it look like spamming.

If morons like you would read the first replay I wouldn't have to repeat the post making it look like spamming

Stop spamming your questions and I'll stop spamming the answer.

Yeah, I post the CT sites because those are the only ones you'll believe.

If you have a problem with the "Tube in a tube" descrition please send your comments it to the people who designed the building. They coined the phrase.

Because personally I don't give a fu<k. I will be calling it that from now on and reposting this as needed. wink.gif

Why do you say that this photograph is the original?
Would you like to see the video original from which it actually did come?


No pools of metal?  No soldified pieces of previously molten metal?
Only streams pouring from the side of the building. 
For a physics forum you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Gordon.

I'd like to see the original video. Because the photo ScottS showed us was of very high resolution. I'd like to see a video of the same high resolution.

I take it you have some evidence we haven't seen which shows molten pools of metal and that the pool was tested to verify what it was? Aluminum? Steel? Because if you don't it would be you who should be ashamed.


Using bad photos/videos and layman's descriptions to draw scientific conclusions is what people should be ashamed of on a physics board. dry.gif

So if there is a MUCH BETTER ORIGINAL, why resort to this distorted image where the contrast is pumped so high every light area becomes a white blob?

Because it fits the LIE they are trying to SELL.

From the Jones paper:

QUOTE
Observe the grayish-white plumes trailing upward from white "blobs" at the left-most extremities of the upper structure.  (The lower structure is mostly obscured by dust.)  It is possible that thermite cut through structural steel and that what we now observe is white-hot iron from the reaction adhering to the severed ends of the steel, with grayish-white aluminum oxide still streaming away from the reaction sites.

Jones (or the guy who gave it to Jones) doctored the photo, and your defending him. I've shown the original photo. Even IF Jones got his version from another source he should of been able to tell how whited out his version was.

You can't tell the Jones copy has cranked up the contrast from the orginal (or OK better quality version)?
Just looking at his photo alone you can see how whited out everything is.
I've seen the video. (But if he has a super high contrast one, then no)

But here's the orginal photo again.
Nope doesn't look like Jones copy.

But others are already knowingly spreading the lie.

Its one thing to ACCIDENTALLY take a quote out of context, but the BLATANT cutting of multitudes of quotes all designed to create a false picture CAN NOT be accidental.

Thus they KNOW they are LYING.

I have no idea of their motive for doing so, I'd say its roughly have ideological and half PT Barnum.

My litmus test now is the 78th floor quote (its almost out, two lines should do it) and the "Pull it" means to Blow up WTC 7 quote.

Anyone who believes, or worse is trying to convince others of those two ideas, is either too dishonest or too moronic to debate.

Because when you use only the evidence that swings to a conspiracy you are a conspiracy theorist.

Because you think it was the government without one shred of evidence it was. If it was blown up it still could have been terrorist. You have no evidence pointing at anyone.

It wouldn't be a "theory" in the scientific sense. It would be a preliminary hypothesis which may change as new information comes out. Namely the NIST report.

If that is true ,why do you call people that disagree with you conspiracy theorist? Nobody has put forth anything more then "preliminary hypothesis" besides the government.

Because when you use only the evidence that swings to a conspiracy you are a conspiracy theorist.

Because you think it was the government without one shred of evidence it was. If it was blown up it still could have been terrorist. You have no evidence pointing at anyone.

Where's your (or anybody's) evidence it was Muslims?

More than your evidence it's Bush...

Who said it was Bush?

And you evaded the original question, so I again offer you the opportunity to post verifiable, non-circumstantial evidence that 'rag-heads done it'. Failure to do so will constitute a complete admission on your part that no such evidence exists.

When I see an honest question I answer honestly. I have answered that question already many times.

Mel,

In case you hadn't noticed, this is a PHYSICS forum.

There are PLENTY of places where you can debate the POLITICS, just not here.

So, no one has ADMITTED anything, they are simply ignoring your childish taunts.

As to your second point.

The NIST report is a good starting point for the initiation of the collapse.

To my knowledge no one has "documented proof" as to EXACTLY how the the buildings collapsed after collapse initiation. Given what it took to model the towers behavior from aircraft impact until local collapse it is unlikely that anyone COULD provide the "documented proof" you are asking for.

On the otherhand, no REPUTABLE engineering firm or architectural firm or other NIST type organization in, oh say Europe or the Middle East or Asia, has REFUTED the statement that NIST made explaining that the global collapse was inevitable once the LOCAL COLLAPSE which they EXTENSIVELY DOCUMENTED had begun.

That was first published over 1 year ago in the Prelimnary report and then published 6 months ago in the Final report.

So, UNTIL the above DOES occur, their statement remains unchallenged by anyone with the credentials to do so.

Given that the Scholars for Truth are going to great lengths to gain acces to evidence that the government went to great lengths (illegal) to make sure no one could gain acces to, it appears to be a simple judgement as to who is interested in the truth of the matter eh.

As much as I distrust Zymanskis method of reporting his suggestion seems one of the best ways forward. Then even if the perpatrators are still at large the world will know that -

""It is already possible to know, beyond a reasonable doubt, one very important thing: the destruction of the World Trade Centre was an inside job, orchestrated by terrorists within our own government."
-

Less Talk and More Action Needed To Get Justice For Mass Murder 9/11 Victims

Enough evidence has been compiled to show beyond a reasonable doubt the government was complicit in 9/11. What's needed is to bypass mainstream media and government, going to a worldwide public forum to get the truth presented in a credible way to the American people.---

No Brian,
The GOOD pictures would have been taken from the FRONT of the building, all you get here is the back and sides. It was a tad difficult to get to the front of the building that day though.

The firefighter testimony gives a better idea of how bad the fires were.
Still, I don't think this building's collapse was anything like the WTC 1&2 collapse.

I do think this will turn out to be a combination of a poor design (or actually a poor redesign to handle an expansion) that created a single point of failure that led to a (dare I say it) Global Disproportionate Progressive Collapse. Check out the building structure and you can see the area under the Kink as the obvious suspect.
In any case this is just my guess, I'm not a structural engineer so I'm waiting for the eventual NIST report. They do say they plan on modeling the collapse of that building.

WTC 1&2 collapse was not disproportionate to the damage and fires they sustained, but NIST believes that WTC 7 was.

First you state that it is unlikely that proof can be provided, then you hang your official CT tin-foil hat on the fact that nobody has provided the proof which you claim is unlikely to be producible . Doesn't leave much room for contesting the issue, does it?

Until you 'people' can provide one shred of evidence to support the gov't CT, the buildings were officially brought down in a 'controlled' manner (read what you will into that). Bring forth some good evidence to support any/all aspects of the official CT, and we may consider revising history for you.

By your own admission, there is no verifiable evidence that Arab hijackers caused the collapse of the WTC buildings, so...

Provide documented proof as to how WTC 1, 2 and 7 progressively collapsed. Failure to provide such evidence constitutes complete admission on your part that no such proof exists.

Mel,

In case you hadn't noticed, this is a PHYSICS forum.

WHO hijacked the planes is not a PHYSICS issue.

There are PLENTY of places where you can debate the POLITICS, just not here.

So, no one has ADMITTED anything, they are simply ignoring your childish taunts.

As to your second point.

The NIST report is a good starting point for the initiation of the collapse.

To my knowledge no one has "documented proof" as to EXACTLY how the the buildings collapsed after collapse initiation. Given what it took to model the towers behavior from aircraft impact until local collapse it is unlikely that anyone COULD provide the "documented proof" you are asking for.

On the other hand, no REPUTABLE engineering firm or architectural firm or other NIST type organization in, oh say Europe or the Middle East or Asia, has REFUTED the statement that NIST made explaining that the global collapse was inevitable once the LOCAL COLLAPSE which they EXTENSIVELY DOCUMENTED had begun.

That was first published over 1 year ago in the Prelimnary report and then published 6 months ago in the Final report.

So, UNTIL the above DOES occur, their statement remains unchallenged by anyone with the credentials to do so.

If memory serves (and I'm not particularly concerned if it doesn't), the notion that Arabs 'done it' has been put forth on many occasions on this board. You need to go back thru the posts and find said claims, then scold your cohorts for making this claim on a physics board.

First you state that it is unlikely that proof can be provided, then you hang your official CT tin-foil hat on the fact that nobody has provided the proof which you claim is unlikely to be producible . Doesn't leave much room for contesting the issue, does it?

Until you 'people' can provide one shred of evidence to support the gov't CT, the buildings were officially brought down in a 'controlled' manner (read what you will into that). Bring forth some good evidence to support any/all aspects of the official CT, and we may consider revising history for you.

==> I have even posted evidence it was 19 Arab men who hijacked the planes and that they were connected to Al Qaeda, but I quickly realized that continuing to debate those issues was not appropriate for this THREAD. If you want to create a THREAD devoted to the Political aspects of 9/11, you are free to do so, but this thread is already heading towards 500 pages without dealing with the politics.

==> Not the same thing. In case one, your desire for "documented proof", is unlikely at best due to the nature of the collapse and the level of info available.

However, the second case, proving the assumption that global collapse is inevitable is NOT THE SAME as showing how it did collapse.
Gordon, one of the less nutty CT'ers, claims to have done so and supposedly has sent Shneibster a copy of his work for review.


Until you 'people' can provide one shred of evidence to support the gov't CT, the buildings were officially brought down in a 'controlled' manner (read what you will into that).

The last section makes no sense.

The NIST report provided plenty of evidence, all you have to be is willing to read it and then smart enough to understand it.

One or both of which is obviously beyond you.

We have photos and quotes to tell us that WTC 7 was a raging inferno which the firemen did not fight for fear of collapse YET when it does collapse, in that most artful way, there is not a sign of fire.

What say the OCTs - if the firefighters did not fight it and it eventually raged enough to bring the building down why is there no evidence on the film? Why does not one commentator mention it, instead saying for the 3rd time today here we have another collapse that looks like controlled demolition??

Invisible inferno? - one for RC methinks.

Hilarious, the cat will have a hernia if you lot dont quit.

I see smoke, I see no fire. A fire which could critically compromise a building, such as the Madrid fire, would be something to consider. I say consider because as we all know even such raging fires as the Madrid fire do not and have never critically compromised such structures. AND SMOKE MOST CERTAINLY CANNOT.

Drivel Brother then makes a big deal of - "fireman saying in their own words why they were pulled out and you call it drivel???"

This from one of those that dismiss the mass of eyewitness evidence of explosives.

When they are defending such a blatant lie such nonsense is to be expected from the Whopper Factory eh.

I've added another indicator of Con-man/moron to my list.

Anyone who claims that the Madrid fire is proof that the WTC fire was not hot enough to cause the collapse.

Madrid = REINFORCED CONCRETE CORE = UNOCCUPIED BUILDING = NO LIVE LOADS = NO PLANE CRASH = NO MAJOR STRUCTURAL DAMAGE = NO FIRE PROOFING MISSING.

Madrid = Reinforced Concrete Core stood while STEEL framed exterior and floors collapsed (a la WTC) down to concrete reinforced mechanical floor.

jones redid the experiment as modified by greening's description.
that's not dishonest. he's being thorough.


so far,
experiments on coincidental thermite done by greening, -ZERO

experiments on coincidental thermite done by by jones, -TWO

number of coincidental thermite reactions observed, -ZERO

the measured time for tower seven should be measured from the time the CORNER begins to drop, not the penthouse. the fact that the penthouse started falling first does not in any way ADD to the time that it takes the CORNER of the building to hit the ground.
presumably, the penthouse could have also been in freefall. once it dips below the roof, it is no longer measurable.

this attempted character assassination of jones is pathetic. the lie is pathetic. protectors of the lie are vile and pathetic. he's a phd., okay? it's typically the 'commen sense' type that needs to flash the badges and credentials. do you proudly employ the 'double standard'?
jones is not alone, oh obfuscating army of brown shirts.

the bright yellow and orange molten metal pouring out of that corner is most probably a thermite reaction. the lack of any visible molten silver aluminum is testament.

jones tests are showing that a coincidental thermite reaction is HIGHLY improbable, and unreproducable even in labaratory conditions(doesn't 'doctor' greening have access to a lab? how come none of you science knights in shining white armour don't protect us against greening's NONSENSE? why aren't you attacking greening for his WILD SPECULATION, LACK OF EVIDENCE, and DISREGARD FOR SCIENTIFIC METHOD? why did he not do some experiments before writing his 'paper')

Is this what you are telling us?
By the way not that I'm sure I agree with Greening's theory (at least on aluminium)
But seems Jones also didn't do what Greening wanted. I heard another revision is going to come out. Greening may be incorrect, not sure but at least its honest and debatable unlike Jones many errors.
cool.gif

jones redid the experiment as modified by greening's description.
that's not dishonest. he's being thorough.


so far,
experiments on coincidental thermite done by greening, -ZERO

experiments on coincidental thermite done by by jones, -TWO

number of coincidental thermite reactions observed, -ZERO

the measured time for tower seven should be measured from the time the CORNER begins to drop, not the penthouse. the fact that the penthouse started falling first does not in any way ADD to the time that it takes the CORNER of the building to hit the ground.
presumably, the penthouse could have also been in freefall. once it dips below the roof, it is no longer measurable.

this attempted character assassination of jones is pathetic. the lie is pathetic. protectors of the lie are vile and pathetic. he's a phd., okay? it's typically the 'commen sense' type that needs to flash the badges and credentials. do you proudly employ the 'double standard'?
jones is not alone, oh obfuscating army of brown shirts.

the bright yellow and orange molten metal pouring out of that corner is most probably a thermite reaction. the lack of any visible molten silver aluminum is testament.

jones tests are showing that a coincidental thermite reaction is HIGHLY improbable, and unreproducable even in labaratory conditions(doesn't 'doctor' greening have access to a lab? how come none of you science knights in shining white armour don't protect us against greening's NONSENSE? why aren't you attacking greening for his WILD SPECULATION, LACK OF EVIDENCE, and DISREGARD FOR SCIENTIFIC METHOD? why did he not do some experiments before writing his 'paper')

p.s. that's for all the shills, scotts, not directed solely at you.

the lies are getting bolder all the time around here. that's a sign of the thick smoke in the oxygen deprived brains of busheltering shills.

I think its good that he's testing Greening stuff.

But I'm afraid Jones is the one who has been caught in lies.
And yes, just look at the NIST report on the penthouse and the timing.
8.2 sec I believe.
Or the timing of the squibs. He really blew that one.
Sorry no lies only Jones proven falsehoods and misquotations, misreprestations.

Like Kevin Ryan. The water tester....
Protectors of the lie are vile and pathetic.
Just as you said, so by your own admission you should be going after Jones.
Go back and look at all of his other errors.

Why do you think you get proven wrong so often.

It was obvious to anyone from the first picture posted (pouring melted Al onto a strip of rusted steel) wouldn't do squat.

The ignition temp for thermite is 1,200 C, so you can melt all the aluminum you want and pour it on all the rust you want and that won't start a thermite reaction.

The two have to mix and they both have to be at 1,200C.

Else Zilch.

Now why should anyone be jumping in to "protect you from Greening"?

It ain't like Greening is posting here.

I've looked at his stuff and while interesting, I don't think Greening's sufficiently made his case and I personally don't think its overly relavent anyway. But, considering the fact that AL and rust do interact and generate a lot of heat when they do and they were both in the tower at the same time, and there IS material used in a planes construction that could provide a thremite ignition source, I have to admit its possible.

That said, I just don't think there would be SUFFICIENT thermite type reaction at any one place or time to play any significant role in the towers collapse. Could it create things like that little effect we saw? Possibly, but then so could other more mundane things.

It would appear to me that Steven Jones starts his clock when the roofline begins its downward movement. It appears to me he says it takes 6.6 secs for this portion of the fall. Are you disputing this? Just looking for a little clarification. It seems highly confusing to talk about the timing of the collapse including the penthouses when Jones may not be referring to that at all.

yes, guest. it would appear that stephen jones knows how to measure things, unlike some who need a holy bible from the papal holy see to 'know the truth'.

stephen jones' argument is that the building fell with little to no resistance. if you measure the distance from the roofline(that is we can see dropping in the experiment.) adding the penthouse time is silly. the four corners of the building fell at the same rate. the rate of the acceleration of gravity.

Newton,
Have you looked at how the WTC 7 building was constructed?
Have you looked at how it was modified for the Con-Ed Substation?
Arthur
Guest
It would be interesting to learn from controlled demolitions experts how they would have gone about setting up WTC 7 for demolition if they had been given that assignment. Where would they put the charges, in what order would the fire, do the unique characteristics of the building affect any decisions, what would the expected appearance be, etc.? Would they set it up so that it a crimp appears just where it happened to during the actual collapse or would they want one elsewhere (or even at all for all I know about CD)? Of course, said CD experts would normally do visual inspections, but what would the best guess be given the available data? I doubt such a person or persons could be induced to provide their opinion so I will just be left with my curiosity.

How does that one thermite pull in the perimeter columns on one face of the building?

How does thermite pull in the columns slowly over time?

If there are more thermites going off why don't we see those?

Why would they set off thermite only at or above the impact point?

How in the world could the CIA or FBI or whoever come up with this massively complicated method to bring down the towers and have it work like a Ballet?

Well that's the difference between me, Common Sense, RC etc. and the typical CT'ers posting here. I don't think any of us would let an error slide just because its posted by someone I generally agree with as to the physics.

On the otherhand we only RARELY see the CT'ers police themselves.

Metamars and Foxx are some of the few who come to mind who are OCCASIONALLY willing to keep other wild CT posters inline.

As to the post, I was commenting on your post, but I see now it originally came from a CS post, but that line was buried in a whole lot of quotes about "tube with in a tube" as a construction term, which I did not read (since those posts were overlapping MY posts on the exact same issue).

In that case, it turns out the RC was referring to a WTC MEMORIAL, not the actual towers.

So when I saw your "I just learned".... (It didn't actually refer back to CS's post), I simply pointed out the use of Reinf. C. was BS.

So, back to the ACTUAL subject.

Do you AGREE, as CS and I do, that the term "tube within a tube" is a valid and commonly used term for the construction technique used in the WTC towers?

Commen sense
Never mind I see it now. I stand corrected on that one link.

http://www.triroc.com/wtc/

So we take that out and we are still left with...


Structural System
1 and 2 World Trade Center used the so-called tube within a tube architecture, in which closely-spaced external columns form the building's perimeter walls, and a dense bundle of columns forms its core. Tall buildings have to resist primarily two kinds of forces: lateral loading (horizontal force) due mainly to the wind, and gravity loading (downward force) due to the building's weight. The tube within a tube design uses a specially reinforced perimeter wall to resist all lateral loading and some of the gravity loading, and a heavily reinforced central core to resist the bulk of the gravity loading. The floors and hat truss completed the structure, spanning the ring of space between the perimeter wall and the core, and transmitting lateral forces between those structures.

The tube within a tube architecture was relatively new at the time the Twin Towers were built, but has since been widely employed in the design of new skyscrapers. In fact most of the world's tallest buildings use it, including:

The Sears Tower (1450 ft)
The World Trade Center Towers (1350 ft)
The Standard Oil of Indiana Building (1125 ft)
The John Hancock Center (1105 ft)

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/index.html

The WTC is topical tube-in-tube structure system, whose outer tube is dense-columns-deep-beams system. The width of the column is 476.25mm while the space between columns is just 558.8mm. The thickness of beams is 1219.2mm. In order to simplify the numerical model and decrease the degree of freedom, the outer dense-columns-deep-beams tube system and inner steel truss tube system are approached with shell elements. The thickness of shell elements is established with equivalent section method. Such approximate tube has the same stiffness of global bending and axial deformation as the real structure, while the local bending stiffness of structure elements is not consisted with the real condition. Since the primary deformation of tube-in-tube structure system is global bending and axial compression deformation, this approximate method should be feasible.

http://www.luxinzheng.net/publications/english_WTC.htm

Some floors must have had large I-beams. Otherwise the building's tube-within-a-tube design made no sense

http://911research.wtc7.net/talks/wtc/trussesre.html

"The new skyscrapers will feature a 'tube-within-a-tube' construction," he said. "The old core was a gypsum core; the new one will be made of masonry, which will exceed the fire code."

You really aren't wrong. If you read the piece, its a "modern" version of the WTC towers, but the floor plan is almost identical, and YES, they did make the center REINFORCED CONCRETE. But both it and the original are a TUBE WITHIN A TUBE design, which was your point.

Wonder Why they went to Reinforced Concrete core (like the Madrid towers)?

Gosh, could the NIST model be a CLUE?

Here's the modern towers your link described.

My apologies for the confusion caused by the mistyping of my last post. I was trying to ask why the photo was considered to be doctored and if the video could be shown. It seems to have lost something in the translation.
However it seems that I have been given two contradictory answers; one which says that a video cannot exist and another from a poster who thinks he has seen it. Can we have some clarification on this please?
I'm sure its just a mistake, like a slip of memory or another typing error, but if there is a video it would be good to examine. Or even similar angles?

The drops of liquid that fall from WTC2 look orange as they exit the building but then they take on a silvery color as they fall further down. It's possible that the outer skin cooled enough as they fell such that the aluminum at the suface went back to its characteristic silver color near its melting point where it barely glows (or doesn't glow in the case of aircraft aluminum alloy)

The inside of the globs that appeared silver could still have been orange hot. That would explain why some globs which appear silver and hit the facade turn orange briefly.

Molten steel would have been yellow-white. It's doubtful its surface would return to a silver color that quickly as it would take more time for it to cool down from 1550C or higher to something near 600C that's not glowing. Steel also doesn't have the silvery color that aluminum does in the non-glowing neighborhood of 500-600C.

The globs of material also look spherical in their freefall which would be consistent with a metal, as liquid metals have a high surface tension and tend to form a sphere. In the video still they actually appear oval but that's probably artifact due to the video recording which records two fields at slightly different times, one slightly below the other. The glob would be further down when recorded in the second field, giving the impression of an oval.

Structural System
1 and 2 World Trade Center used the so-called tube within a tube architecture, in which closely-spaced external columns form the building's perimeter walls, and a dense bundle of columns forms its core. Tall buildings have to resist primarily two kinds of forces: lateral loading (horizontal force) due mainly to the wind, and gravity loading (downward force) due to the building's weight. The tube within a tube design uses a specially reinforced perimeter wall to resist all lateral loading and some of the gravity loading, and a heavily reinforced central core to resist the bulk of the gravity loading. The floors and hat truss completed the structure, spanning the ring of space between the perimeter wall and the core, and transmitting lateral forces between those structures.

The tube within a tube architecture was relatively new at the time the Twin Towers were built, but has since been widely employed in the design of new skyscrapers. In fact most of the world's tallest buildings use it, including:

The Sears Tower (1450 ft)
The World Trade Center Towers (1350 ft)
The Standard Oil of Indiana Building (1125 ft)
The John Hancock Center (1105 ft)

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/index.html

The WTC is topical tube-in-tube structure system, whose outer tube is dense-columns-deep-beams system. The width of the column is 476.25mm while the space between columns is just 558.8mm. The thickness of beams is 1219.2mm. In order to simplify the numerical model and decrease the degree of freedom, the outer dense-columns-deep-beams tube system and inner steel truss tube system are approached with shell elements. The thickness of shell elements is established with equivalent section method. Such approximate tube has the same stiffness of global bending and axial deformation as the real structure, while the local bending stiffness of structure elements is not consisted with the real condition. Since the primary deformation of tube-in-tube structure system is global bending and axial compression deformation, this approximate method should be feasible.

Some floors must have had large I-beams. Otherwise the building's tube-within-a-tube design made no sense

"The new skyscrapers will feature a 'tube-within-a-tube' construction," he said. "The old core was a gypsum core; the new one will be made of masonry, which will exceed the fire code."

You last reference is as wrong as the first. They say nothing about the old tower being a Tube within a tube. His explanation:

Belton didn't say the new towers would necessarily withstand a strike similar to 9/11's, but that his proposed construction would be less likely to collapse the way the originals did. The exterior skin would feature more columns resulting in a much stronger design, he said, while permitting larger windows for more natural sunlight. The core would feature the same columns as the exterior - hence the idea of a tube-within-a-tube - with walls made of reinforced concrete.


I see you saved yourself more embarrassment and removed the How Stuff Works quote.

I am not the guest, yesterday I was checking if you can post more then twice (It is possible). You would be the only one with a picture of Schneibster/Common Sense/Commen Sence.

My apologies for the confusion caused by the mistyping of my last post. I was trying to ask why the photo was considered to be doctored and if the video could be shown. It seems to have lost something in the translation.
However it seems that I have been given two contradictory answers; one which says that a video cannot exist and another from a poster who thinks he has seen it. Can we have some clarification on this please?
I'm sure its just a mistake, like a slip of memory or another typing error, but if there is a video it would be good to examine. Or even similar angles?
Gordon.

There are videos of the event and even from roughly this angle, but that picture is not from a Video. You can easily tell because the height X width don't match any existing video formats and also the quality is too good, it exceeds the best HiDef video signal (1080p) and this ignores the losses going from Mpeg to Jpeg (both are lossey algorithms).

But you don't have to guess if it is video of not because the picture has a EXIF tag which gives all the info you could possibly want. Most decent graphics programs will display this info if it is stored in the Jpeg image (note the field exif offset that's how the jpeg decomressor finds it):
