Go look at videos of the WTC collapsing the fire is at the top of each building. Even if steel structures can be weakened by fire that does not explain how the whole building collapsed due to planes crashing at the top (which is the only placed you can see fire).(May 1, 2012 at 8:31 pm)Abishalom Wrote: BTW I noticed how you failed to respond to my simple question. A plane hit a building near the top of the building (not its foundation) yet it crumbles IN PLACE (similar to controlled demolition). Please explain...
This is very simple. The planes crashed into the WTC travelling in excess of 500 mph. The initial collision dislodged fire retardant insulation that was on the steel beams of the structure. The planes were also loaded with fuel. Remember, the terrorists specifically hijacked planes taking cross country flights so there would be lots of fuel on board. This fuel spattered all over the building and began to burn. As the fuel burned, it weakened the steel superstructure because the insulation was gone. As the steel weakened, it began to sag. Once the critical point was reached, the supports gave way and the top floors pancaked onto those below. Once begun, nothing could stop it and the building collapsed in place.
Understand now?

So please explain how the whole structures became hot enough to weaken even though we see no fire other than the ones concentrated at the top.
