Moderated Continuation - Why a one-way Crush down is not possible

Bill.....you aren't getting it.....he is trying to keep things more general and simple for starters. He will get to the details after he has gone over the basic principles and concepts.

If he wanted to he could explain it to you using basically all math...all equations...but you wouldn't understand any of it because you don't have the background knowledge.

You don't have the background knowledge to even understand the math behind the physics, much less the actual physics or engineering....so he is keeping it in as simple of terms as possible. Try closing your mouth for a change and trying to LEARN something.



You just aren't getting it Bill.

Maybe it's because you are too stubborn....
Maybe it's because you lack the fundamental education and training....
Maybe it's because you just aren't intelligent enough....
Maybe it's because you are delusional....

Who knows why you aren't getting it.....you just aren't. Put your questions and theories aside for a few minutes and READ HIS POST. Read it and THINK about what he is saying....

The analogies and illustrations are for YOUR BENEFIT....to make it easier to understand what is going on. But you would rather just keep repeating sound bites than trying to actually learn something.

It's too bad that you can't just shut up and try to learn instead of talking about things you have zero business talking about.

I have interacted with T for several years on these subjects and I can tell you with complete honesty that there is nothing to learn about the truth of 9/11 from him. You will learn as time goes by.

It's been 8 years Bill. How much more time do you need to come up with one spec of evidence?
 
Maybe somebody will make a jpeg of a 47 column core with all it's lateral bracing and then superimpose the lines of text you have posted on top. I think that could be a very very effective image.

The lateral bracing was the perimeter columns. The floors provided the connection between the core columns and the perimeter columns. The floors were destroyed. The core columns fell down because of this.

Do you understand this concept?

Do I have to post that WTC2 video aagain ?

The video which you gullibly conflated a graphic overlay with reality? Go ahead champ! We all can use another laugh :D

Not the overlay. The core that it was describing and that can be fairly clearly seen. The overlay just shows how the bracing looked.

PS for the longer clip scroll down to 'wtc2 took 30 seconds to collapse'.

Heiwa,

What are you trying to prove here?
.
There was a grand total of 8 minutes between the posting of your previous post, and your reply that I am now answering. That gave you perhaps 4 minutes to read my post & 4 minutes to type your typically vacuous reply. Maybe 1 minute scan & 7 minutes babble. Who knows.

Try reading what I wrote. Try understanding it in the simple, clear context of the discussion that we've been having. A discussion that is NOT about your broken-record silliness. But is about the simple, clear wager that I offered, you jumped at, but then you were smart enough to chicken out of. Smart move, that.
.
A new way of controlled demolition of a building?
.
Your comment reveals the fact that you neither read nor understood what I wrote. Don't be afraid. It's not that difficult. Even you should be able to understand it. Clearly not in 4 minutes, tho.
.
Put plenty of funny people up top ... and a one-way crush down takes place?

Sorry, you are supposed to drop the complete upper part C on lower part A and then demonstrate that part C can one-way crush down A.
.
There you go using that word "suppose", again....

Tsk, tsk.

You are on the wrong discussion. This discussion is about the wager that I offered you. The one that you declined.
.
I have already shown (post #1 of original thread, etc) that it is not possible.
.
You've shown nothing.

Your post #1 is both wrong & irrelevant. This post is a stepping stone on the way to explaining to non-mechanical engineers exactly why you are wrong. Mechanical engineers understand this easily already, and don't need my simplified explanation.

Perhaps this is still too difficult for you to understand... That would be a real problem. I don't frankly see how much simpler I could make this concept.

If it remains a mystery to you, perhaps you should consider a different line of work.
.
You are supposed to prove me wrong.
.
No, Anders. You're wrong.

Competent engineers have already done that a long, long time ago for other competent engineers.

I have chosen to take the issues related to the collapse that you intentionally mash together into gibberish, and to try to present them in easy to understand terms to non-engineers.

You have no important role in that. You are welcome to comment, of course.

You really should read before replying, tho. It will make you appear less frivolous.

That was a yes or no question. Do you understand the concept? You can disagree with whether it happened or not (and we can look at actual photographs laters), but do you understand the CONCEPT?

I think so. It's pretty straightforward.
 
I often have that feeling myself. One overlay is pretty much like another I reckon.

This is what the remaining core actually looked like. It's very, very beat up. There's also not that regular grid of beams (which wouldn't provide lateral bracing anyways) like the fake overlay in the video you posted.

Are you not at all interested in the fact that the image on the right seems to show the steel becoming dust ?

It fell over. That's smoke. Or are you implying that the structure, as it was leaning over and starting to fall was dustified?
