Dubai Address hotel fire

90 West St., a steel-framed skyscraper, burned for days after 9/11, and DIDN'T collapse.

I am certainly willing to learn more about this fire, but it's easy to make a preliminary conclusion as to why the building didn't collapse - it didn't have WTC in its name.
 
LOL. Think about what you just said.

I don't mean to answer for him, but it may be because steel fails in fire pretty quickly. So there's a need to protect it from the heat of a fire. At least long enough to evacuate.

Why would you suppose there needs to be fireproofing on steel?
 
Why not? What are we comparing this to? Does construction and site condition matter?
Obviously it does.

It's amazing that not one skeptic will admit to the hypocrisy they clearly exhibit. They will cite Ronan Point, Skyline Towers and verinage every single time they want to talk about building collapses, even though they have nothing to do with steel-frame high rises. But, if a truther talks about fire, then building material and everything else matters.

This is hypocrisy, and nothing else. Your hypocrisy invalidates your arguments. You can deny this, but it's a fact.
 
The purpose of this thread is not to make conclusions of any kind, even though yours are obviously in jest. Everyone involved in the 9/11 debate should be watching this and paying attention to everything. We can make conclusions later.

It's been a few months now, what is your conclusion?

Was the building reduced to pulverized concrete? What was the construction of the building? Did the entire building collapse, or just a portion? I clearly see partially intact floors on the ground. Is that what we observed with the collapse of WTC1 and WTC2? You can also see the sides of the building still standing.

It's a brick building that collapses. The part that is still on fire is still standing.

Another brick building collapses. What was the reason?
 
Come now FF, do you really think anyone's still buying this?

What is your proof that steel fails quickly? It seems like a simple claim, so it seems like it would be easy to prove it.

If steel fails so quickly, why is it used as a construction material?
 
Your conclusion to the fire at The Address Hotel.

What conclusion is there to make? The building caught fire. The building did not collapse. The statement, "another high rise caught fire and didn't collapse" is true, but that is not a conclusion. It's just a true statement.

I imagine the conclusion would be why the address hotel didn't collapse.

Remember you started the thread and said we can make a conclusion later.

I'm not an engineer. All I know is the building caught fire and it didn't collapse. Wait, I know a little more. Only three steel-frame high rises have caught fire and completely collapsed. They all had WTC in their names, were all leased by the same person, they were all within a few hundred yards of each other, and they all collapsed on the same day. Wait. Wait. I know a little bit more. I know I'm supposed to ignore all of that and believe the government, cuz, you know, 'murica.
