The one's from Robertson's firm? Was that a trick question or something? Have you looked at the WTC section of LERA's website to see how they cooperated? Does Domel's report say they had blueprints/drawings?
Have you actually looked into this at all?
What blueprints did NIST, FEMA, etc use in their Building Performance Reports?
From LERA's website:
LERA's website said:World Trade Center and NIST
"In response to the WTC tragedy, the National Institute of Standards and Technology is conducting a three-part plan: a 24-month building and fire safety investigation to study the factors contributing to the probable cause (or causes) of post-impact collapse of the WTC Towers (WTC 1 and 2) and WTC 7; a research and development program to provide the technical basis for improved building and fire codes, standards, and practices; and a dissemination and technical assistance program to engage leaders of the construction and building community in implementing proposed changes to practices, standards and codes. Also it will provide practical guidance and tools to better prepare facility owners, contractors, architects, engineers, emergency responders, and regulatory authorities to respond to future disasters."
LERA participated in the development of a database of structural information for the two towers of the World Trade Center (WTC1 and 2).
See that last part about LERA participated in the development of structural information? How the fuck do you think they did that? From memory?
So basically you don't know what blueprints were used. Was NIST given access to plans that NIST was not allowed to be made public?
