If I remember right Eots mentioned that the beams near the base of the towers had to be about 4 inches thick.... That's an awful lot of thermite to burn through that much steel without anyone noticing....
175 pounds of thermite couldn't burn through a 1/2 thick column, so I imagine it would take over 1,000,000,000 pounds to burn through a 4 inch thick beam.
