I understand the entire design and a lot more that you obviously don't realize exists, let alone understand. I never bothered to answer this clueless post because it made no sense. You debunkers never answer anything, you just fire away with whatever idiocy that comes to mind, no matter how disconnected it is from the conversation. You are incapable of making use of the threads, which, BTW, can be used to hold a conversation (something intelligent people do).
So, the tops were blown to bits and therefore never acted as a weight to crush those connections of yours, where ever they might have been. By the way, the floor joists hung on thick bar steel in sheer with the wall, NIST never said they were crushed, they tried to get around them by saying the walls bent outward... which the walls did; from the explosives... not the fire. But you seem to think that steel holding up the floors in sheer with the curtain wall was weak. Those connections had 100% the strength of the curtain wall (by design - duh). To think otherwise is to scream, "I don't know the first thing about structural design". Which you did a bang up job of screaming throughout the thread.
The top post pointed at an obvious Lie in the structural failure abalysis of the lower floors. Over and over in this thread I kept explaining that the core columns run from top to bottom and are seamless; you have to somehow collapse the core columns also, and there was a lot of them... scores of them... and each one of them failed; how? You seem to think they would just fall with the floors; wrong, they don't. NIST never answered that, either. I added that the cores snapped at the onset of collapse; meaning ALL the core columns snapped in half; which they plainly did and it is highly visible for both tower collapses. What could have snapped all the core columns in half BEFORE the towers collapsed? Other than explosives?
answer: nothing, even a 9.0 earthquake would not have snapped those cores, they were the strongest cores ever built and designed to bend like a tree, which makes them that much harder to snap in half. That's why I kept pointing it out, but you dimwits are soooooooooooooo stupid, I might as well be singing opera to cows.
