(*6952cd93*):: Don’t worry guys- WTC7 fell because the fire sprinklers were knocked out of commission. Case closed :clown_face: https://www.nist.gov/publications/final-report-collapse-world-trade-center-building-7-federal-building-and-fire-safety-0 +public!
*** Final Report on the Collapse of World Trade Center Building 7, Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster (NIST NCSTAR 1A)
*** This report describes how the fires that followed the impact of debris from the collapse of WTC 1 (the north tower) led to the collapse of WTC 7; an evaluation

(*54b3f3ac*):: fire is hot
(*54b3f3ac*):: ”WTC 7 was unlike the WTC towers in many respects. It was not struck by an airplane. The fires in WTC 7 were quite different from those in the towers. Since WTC 7 was not doused with thousands of gallons of jet fuel, large areas of any floor were not ignited simultaneously. Instead, the fires in WTC 7 were similar to those that have occurred previously in several tall buildings where the sprinklers did not function or were not present. The Investigation Team has compiled a list of key factors that enabled ordinary fires to result in an extraordinary outcome. In so doing, the Team recognized that there were additional aspects to be included in the content of some of the 30 earlier recommendations. The urgency of the prior recommendations is substantially reinforced by their pertinence to the collapse of WTC 7, a tall building that is based on a structural system design that is in widespread use.
The partial or total collapse of a building due to fires is an infrequent event. This is particularly true for buildings with a reliably operating active fire protection system such as an automatic fire sprinkler system. ”
the team did a bang up job! Not saying the sprinklers were faulty, but casually mentioning it a couple times. And a funny sentence in their ramblings… The partial or total collapse of a building due to fires is an infrequent event.
Oh reeeaaallllyy now, even partial eh? How about those other 2 towers that were built to defend that type of attack…?
