Please answer these questions.
1. How old are you?
2. What do you do for a living?
3. Where did you get your PhD / MS in structural engineering?
4. How many FEAs for the collapse of giant structures have you performed?
1. 58
2. Mechanical engineer.
3. BSME, Cornell U.
(I've answered all of these before. Why is it that the vast majority of the truthers will NOT state their qualifications?)
4. None. I've done lots of small ones for my designs.
But I'm not the one who is claiming (with zero evidence, only baseless assertions) that a passel of successful, proven professionals working within their fields of expertise (NIST & their consulting experts & the 1000s of structural engineers who have accepted their report) got it all wrong.
See the difference?

Hey Clayton,
1. How old are you?
2. What do you do for a living?
3. Where did you get your PhD / MS in structural engineering?
4. How many FEAs for the collapse of giant structures have you performed?
(truth please.)
Also, the jist of the post ... that you skipped / missed / chose to ignore.
5. Do you think that some of the details of the construction of the building MIGHT just play a role in the nature of the collapse?
6. Or do you think that the collapse of this small, symmetrical erector set is valid for all large structures?
7. Do you think that the manufacturer of the FEA software sits up at night worrying that someone may catch on to the fact that his product is no longer needed because the analysis of one simplistic model applies to all other structures?
8. What experience in your background qualifies you to gainsay the results of several dozen PhDs in structural engineering who spent several years modeling, you know, the ACTUAL BUILDING, instead of a completely unrelated structure?
