obviously you need to add drywall and carpet to increase the horsepower of the fire.

Don't forget aluminum... implausibly red-glowing, molten aluminum.

If you add two stroke oil it'll give the horsepower more power bands thus increasing the melting rate.

You don't need to melt steel to significantly weaken it

You need more that 1500 degrees. I do it every day.

And the elevator to transport the fire evenly across all layers to melt the icing.

Who the fuck ever said jet fuel melted steel beams? You don't need to melt metal to get it to bend or fail.

Multiple problems with 3 towers that collapsed that day. WTC 1 and 2 couldn't have been crushed all the way to the bottom floor by the top half under gravity alone. Those buildings can hold multiple times their own weight. So even if those floors could have collapsed, it would be impossible for them to completely crush the entire building.

WTC 7 wasn't hit by a plane. The official story is that it apparently feel down to office fires. Steel framed high rises are designed to be completely engulfed in flames and not fall. WTC 7 only had fires on a few floors. The official story involves a sequence of extrememly unlikely events.The most impossible part is that WTC 7 fell at free fall acceleration. You can only achieve this acceleration when there is no resistance.

Dr Hulsey who is a professor of engineering at alaska fairbanks released his report of the collapse of WTC 7 just a few weeks ago. They determined that it is impossible for fires to cause the collapse of WTC 7.

Think of the intelligence level of those that make this claim. Steel is 100% strong until it reaches its melting point. 👌

Yeah, it's just like how ice melts. One moment it's totally solid and strong with no degrading whatsoever, but the second it hits its melting point, it instantaneously turns into a puddle of water.

I heat finished steel parts to 2250 f every day. At that temp you have to worry about the parts deforming; but the parts we run at lower temps like 1700, we don't worry as much.

Thickness is everything. To get a part to temperature we estimate 1 hour per inch of thickness.

Of course most of the parts we deal with are smaller than thick steel beams.

It doesn't add up.

Are the steel parts you're working on supporting the weight of an entire building while you're working on them?

They don't deform at 1500 f.

They don't.

Those buildings can hold multiple times their own weight. So even if those floors could have collapsed, it would be impossible for them to completely crush the entire building. They are also designed to withstand fires and plane crashes to begin with. They planned for that for that exact situation.

You can only achieve this acceleration when there is no resistance. The only way to make a building fall at free fall acceleration is to break the supporting columns simultaneously.

Try it in a tall tube so you have air flow.

Pfft!

I can melt steel beams with jet fuel in my sleep!
