I didn't realize you wanted the thread to never end. hah, I'm done with my stupid input.
Wrong
Loring Knoblauch, CEO of UL, to Ryan 11-15-04
“We tested the steel with all the required fireproofing on and it did fine.”
UL tested components/samples/assemblies with all the required fireproofing, before the Trade Towers were built.
There were NO samples from the Trade Towers.
Where does it say that UL had done any testing post 9/11 ?
You are right.Read NISTNCSTAR 1-6 pp. 39-56. The ASTM E119 fire resistance rating tests NIST had performed on floor assemblies built as in the WTC towers (because NIST could find no documentation of such tests being performed prior to the construction of the towers) were done at the UL furnace facility in Toronto.
Blanket denial is meaningless.A&E are debunked.
as possible. The most amusing thing about this is that Gage will never use this slide again. He changes this so that it will apply to WTC 7 (eliminating squibs and adding "pools of molten iron"), and then changes it even further to apply it to the Towers. He used to put the exact slide he uses for WTC 7 here, but now he has three separate lists of characteristic features of controlled demolition.
job of applying them to the buildings.Now there's a good reason to write the whole thing off.you mean what specific errors can be found in the first statement on their website?Theirlist isn't of 309 architectural and engineering professionals." Welcome to Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth!
[FONT=Courier New,Courier,monospace] 309 [/FONT]architectural and engineering professionals
and [FONT=Courier New,Courier,monospace] 1277 [/FONT] other supporters including A/E students
have signed the petition demanding of Congress
a truly independent investigation."
if they can't even get their count right (and confirm that his membership is only architectural and engineering professionals) why should we believe anything on that site?
Please point out the errors.Sigh.
The first 28 pages of the slideshow as it now stands (the third iteration) includes a section from 911 Mysteries and most of the This Is An Orange short, which purports to tell the entire story of Building 7 based on visual identification. The errors in these two film clips are legion.
You keep talking in generalities and site structure.It also includes this key slide:

Which is about as full ofas possible. The most amusing thing about this is that Gage will never use this slide again. He changes this so that it will apply to WTC 7 (eliminating squibs and adding "pools of molten iron"), and then changes it even further to apply it to the Towers. He used to put the exact slide he uses for WTC 7 here, but now he has three separate lists of characteristic features of controlled demolition.
None of them are complete. All of them contain superfluous and non-exclusive elements. And Gage will do ajob of applying them to the buildings.
Please point out the errors.
You keep talking in generalities and site structure.
Please point out specific mistakes.
BTW:
Ryan DID NOT LIE !
ryan said:Alternatively, the contention that this steel did fail at temperatures around 250C suggests that the majority of deaths on 9/11 were due to a safety-related failure
ryan said:Why Dr. Brown would imply that 2000F would melt the high-grade steel used in those buildings makes no sense at all.
NIST said:In no instance did NIST report that steel in the WTC towers melted due to the fires. The melting point of steel is about 1,500 degrees Celsius (2,800 degrees Fahrenheit)
No, if the steel did not get above 250°C, then it should not have failed and therefore something is amiss.The above statement is a lie. Yes or No, Chris?
That's a damn lie!Ryan was fired because he "expressed his own opinions as though they were institutional opinions and beliefs of UL." (Paul Baker, UL spokesman)
Ryan was perfectly clear that he was speaking for himself.
"Having recently reviewed your team's report of 10/19/04, I felt the need to contact you directly. As I'm sure you know, the company I work for certified the steel components used in the construction of the WTC buildings. In requesting information from both our CEO and Fire Protection business manager last year, I learned that they did not agree on the essential aspects of the story, except for one thing - that the samples we certified met all requirements."
ryan said:"Alternatively, the contention that this steel did fail at temperatures around 250C suggests that the majority of deaths on 9/11 were due to a safety-related failure"
C7 said:No, if the steel did not get above 250°C, then it should not have failed and therefore something is amiss.
That is his opinion.
NIST FAQs said:Based on this comprehensive investigation, NIST concluded that the WTC towers collapsed because: (1) the impact of the planes severed and damaged support columns, dislodged fireproofing insulation coating the steel floor trusses and steel columns, and widely dispersed jet fuel over multiple floors; and (2) the subsequent unusually large jet-fuel ignited multi-floor fires (which reached temperatures as high as 1,000 degrees Celsius) significantly weakened the floors and columns with dislodged fireproofing to the point where floors sagged and pulled inward on the perimeter columns. This led to the inward bowing of the perimeter columns and failure of the south face of WTC 1 and the east face of WTC 2, initiating the collapse of each of the towers. Both photographic and video evidence—as well as accounts from the New York Police Department aviation unit during a half-hour period prior to collapse—support this sequence for each tower.
