Without having the original in unaltered context, it's hard to say.
take a simple shovel full of sand. label each grain of sand. toss it up in the air, create a computer program that will accurately predict the collision of each grain of sand including how many collisions and the effect it would have on the redirection of those individual labeled sand grains. create a map predicting the dispersion and landing location of each of those grains of sand. Should be very simple for you mister "computer programmer for a few years" because those grains wont be damaged or lose mass. And they only travel about 10 feet, not 1000. This is a simplified equivalent of what you are ignorantly assuming NIST or anyone, for that matter, could accurately model.
Why do you start off your post with a lie? Szamboti is not a Professional Engineer.
Szamboti is a mechanical engineer, that much is established. Now whether he's competent in structural engineering... well, in one of my exchanges with him he insisted on treating the strength of the core by imagining it as a single, large 1 inch thickness column (measuring length and width by the dimensions of the tower cores). I need to find that post, it was actually quite bizarre
Bottom line, there are too many people who saw molten steel to second guess them all because of personal incredulity.
Yes, he has a BS in Mechanical Engineering. But he is not a "Professional" Engineer (P.E.). Here is his listing at ae911truth.org:

You see even AE don't list him under "engineers" but "engineering professionals". He is from New Jersey, and here is the latest (2010) NJ roster of Professional Engineers:

It contains no Mr. Szamboti.
That's why cicorp started off his post with a blatant lie while trying to make an Argument from Authority.
He could be a member in a neighboring state.
Professional Mechanical Engineer Tony Szamboti
He could be a member in a neighboring state.
Professional Mechanical Engineer Tony Szamboti mentioned in his speech at the University of Hartford that NIST's experiment set the simulation so that WTC 7's steel thermal conductivity was zero. That means it did not dissipate any heat, as normal steel would, thus creating an artificially high temperature of steel.

He also said:
"Each floor of the WTC 7 was the size of a football field." (about 100 yards wide)
"Nobody does a failure analysis by not saving physical evidence. Nobody." (Steel evidence was removed))
"The destruction of evidence warrants an investigation in and of itself." (tampering with a Federal crime scene.)
"There were sheer studs on the girders" (reinforcements that the NIST computer model did not have)
"NIST's model did not allow for heat dissipation through the steel" (NIST said steel thermal conductivity was zero, unrealistic)
"Concrete has the same differential coefficient of expansion as steel" (NIST model did not, which tears concrete from steel)
"The vertical load capacity of a beam when it has a slight local buckling is generally not upset." (it still can support a floor)
"They didn't test this" (NIST did no experiments with physical steel, just computer models)
The beams had 6 times the strength needed to resist buckling.
"NIST is telling us that the entire interior collapsed before the exterior...ludicrous"
"The NIST report is unfortunately, thoroughly bogus."
"Fires could not have caused the collapse of this enormous building."
If we don't expose the criminals of 9/11, they may go on and commit other crimes.
I had all the math done, and then I realized that you were being sarcastic!!
Why do YOU lie? Tony is a professional engineer in Philadelphia.Why do you start off your post with a lie? Szamboti is not a Professional Engineer.
Why do YOU lie. He certainly is.
Show some proof. Do you lie, or are you just a stupid Truster?You do not want to hang your hat on Tony. He is a proven liar.
Do you? He is an engineer as a profession. That's sufficient. Get over it.Got proof? State and license number?
Or do you not know the specific legal meaning of the term "Professional Engineer"?
You cite articles that make you look like a Gullible Truster. What are you doing on a forum for Critical Thinkers? In the article YOU cite, Leslie Robertson says:The structural engineer of the WTC towers said aircraft impacts and fires destroyed the WTC towers.

Do you? He is an engineer as a profession. That's sufficient. Get over it.
Examine what he is saying in the speech, instead of desperate ad hominems.
The point is, how did a strong building come down at nearly speed of gravity?
Why did NIST make up such a stupid story as WTC 7 collapsing inside before outside?
Why do YOU lie? Or are you just stupid? Tony is a professional engineer in Philadelphia.
