The calculations arent flawed.

They are based on facts apart from the evidence of the buildings.

For example, the mass of thermite and the amount that would be needed for x building so large is a value you can calculate w/o needing debrie from the buildings.


How can you draw a conclusion on the amount of thermate, when almost all the evidence was destroyed!

Let's say that the amount of thermate was indeed not sufficient, how then is it possible that in every sample of the dust of WTC, thermate has been found?

What is the probability of that, considering that nearly all the evidence was either shipped to another country or destroyed.

It's not a strong argument at all. Resting on pure speculation.



One more time:

Calculate the amount of thermite needed for any, any building at all you pick it. Then calculate how much that would weigh. ANY BUILDING

Not sure how we need evidence for that. :?

It's called "factor of safety" and engineering term and it's not uncommon for an individual structural member to be sized to hold 10x it's actual load so it can compensate in the event of damage to to other members.


Nice, the other term I mentioned is actually more for electrical/mechanical engineers. Wasn't sure about civil. If you ever heard "If it doesn't have two engines and two pilots, I'm not getting on it" thats what I meant by redundancy. My point is, important things built in modern times should be stronger than what the media/others are trying to tell me.

The calculations you presented are based on the assumption that only thermite and/or thermate were used, and doesn't factor in HOW it was used. What is being claimed, is that it was used as a cutter charge. These are shaped charges that are used to cut through steel in demoliting large structures.

Now the question is, how much do cutter charges weigh, and if thermate was used for them, how much would they require?

Which is strange, since immediately after 9/11, it seemed to be unanimous, that the collapses weren't soley caused by the impact and any subsequent fires.

One wonders why they changed their minds, and why (if they truly believe they were wrong) that they made the initial claim in the first place.

Sorry but I hold actual building demo crews in higher regard on this subject than "experts".
