Architecture — Degreed and Licensed
• Bio:
I've been a practicing Architect for 20 years and have designed numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. More recently I've performed construction administration services for a new $120M high school campus including a $10M steel-framed gymnasium; managing construction documentation of a mixed use urban project with 1.2M sq. ft. of retail and 320,000 sq.ft. of high-rise office space - altogether about 1,200 tons of steel framing.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
The WTC Twin Towers and Building #7 appear to have been brought down not by jet impacts and/or fires as we have been led to believe - but by controlled demolition with explosives. The evidence noted on AE911Truth.org and other excellent websites is "prima facie" and will, with the increasing public awareness and demand for the truth, result in a new truly independent investigation with subpeona power. A/E's must now become leaders for 9/11 Truth - Join Us!

• Bio:
In practice since 1964, registered since 1969. Have designed all types of buildings from small residences to high-rise buildings. Currently a principal in a 14-person architectural firm that designs primarily churches and municipal buildings.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I have "known" from day-one that the buildings were imploded and that they could not and would not have collapsed from the damage caused by the airplanes that ran into them.

• Bio:
David Helpern’s degrees are a B.A. from Brown University and a Master of Architecture from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design. In 1993, he was named a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects.
David Helpern founded Helpern Architects in 1971 to create leading-edge designs and plans for educational institutions at all levels, from elementary schools to universities, to adult and continuing education. Over the years, his practice grew to include a long list of prominent cultural and faith-based organizations, as well as corporate and hospitality-industry clients.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
The speed and symmetry of the collapses is not consistent with the damage. A new investigation is needed.

Architecture — Degreed and Licensed
• Bio:
Mr. Kelly was co-author of the groundbreaking book "Problem Seeking: An Architectural Programming Primer," which is a standard college textbook in the USA. He brings more than 28 years of experience in the programming field including such projects as the Chrysler Technology Center, Microsoft's recent headquarters expansion, all sports venues for the Atlanta Olympics, and the 1.8 million square foot 3M Research & Development Austin Center.
Elevated to FAIA in 2005
From a membership of more than 74,000, the AIA has fewer than 2,500 members who may be recognized with the designation of FAIA. Fellowship which requires at least 10 years of AIA membership along with significant architectural contributions on a national level.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
The Presentation made by Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth at the AIA Convention in San Francisco made a sufficient case that a new investigation into the collapses of the 3 high rise buildings on 9/11/01 would be worthwhile.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
There appear too many unexplained events and unverified circumstances to be satisfied with the official version of the New York building collapses. As unthinkable as it is to suspect the United States government or military of willful complicity in these horrendous acts, it is even more heinous to allow such complicity--if indeed it exists--to remain undiscovered and unpunished. Therefore, a thorough and impartial investigation by an independent, well-funded commission is fully merited.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
It was the discovery of molten steel in the Tub that made me realize there was something really wrong about the MSM coverage of the Towers. The discovery of intergranular melting has so far not been explained, officially. Building 7 collapse looks like a demolition to me, and if nothing else happens, this should be intensively re-investigated by an independent team of architects and engineers.

• Bio:
CA Licenses: Architect C9585, Civil Engineer C30541
I was a summer intern at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in 1972 when the North tower of the WTC was being completed. I graduated from Columbia in 1974 and went on to practice architecture and civil engineering for 8 years. I am now a computer specialist in integration, CAD and software engineering.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
By 9/12 I was convinced that there was something "fishy" about the "collapse" of the WTC. I learned about progressive collapse from my engineering professors at Columbia, and I found it hard to imagine that the twin towers could have failed in that way. They were specifically designed to resist impact and load applied by the collision of a Boeing 707 jet. The buildings appeared to have been destroyed by an engineered demolition. When I articulated my suspicions, however, I was met with derision. I have continued, however, in my conviction that the buildings were intentionally destroyed.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Being from Minnesota, something smells fishy! I smell a rat as well. Will three sentences suffice?

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
For the past 6 years since 9/11, my belief in the official media accounts of what happened to the WTC that day has been gradually but increasingly eroding down to disbelief. Yet, I have been willfully disregarding any 'conspiracy theories' that loudly and obnoxiously point fingers at the Presidency with more hatred than evidence (Bush has some power, but he is not omnipotent!). But, after stumbling upon this site, I find some of my colleagues have been quietly and steadfastly giving this issue a fair and rational assessment that I now think deserves my attention and support. There are many serious questions that have yet to be answered about 9/11, and I am looking forward to being part of the movement towards uncovering the truth, whatever it may be, wherever it may lead us.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
An independent investigation must be done as there are so many questions about the collapse and inherent cover-up of information relating to the world trade center before and after the collapse. All that were involved in this complex operation must be held accountable by the American people.

• Bio:
I am an architect in Austin, TX. Prior to moving here in 1996, I lived in New York City for 20 years. I received my professional license in 1983 from the State of NY. (I allowed my license to lapse in 1994, however.)
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
It's so incredibly important that architectural and engineering professionals stand together to question the "official" story and request a real investigation of the collapse of the Twin Towers and Building 7.
It is in the memory of my dear friend, Frank DeMartini, who was killed on 9/11 helping others gt out of the buildings, that I hope and pray that some day, soon, the truth will be uncovered and those responsible will be brought to justice.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Skeptical of symmetrical and rapid collapse of towers and lack of credible description of cause of collapse. Doubts of the credibility of the whole public story of 9/11 - spent hours on the web trying to understand the specifics of the event: time lines, the actions surrounding 9/11 both before and after, evidence presented or lack thereof. The more I looked the more skeptical I have become.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I quit the AIA over its lack of interest in this issue. Without insisting on a thorough explanation of what transpired on 9/11, the AIA simply cannot claim to represent the architectural profession.
I didn't see video footage of the collapses until 2005. At that point I spent months searching the web for more information. At the end of the day, the deliberate demolition is obvious. The reasons for doing so are incomprehensible - which is why many people refuse to acknowledge reality. The reality however, is that multiple crimes were committed, and crimes need to be investigated and the criminals brought to justice. They never were in Iraq.

• Bio:
Residential architect with design expertise in steel construction in hurricane zones.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
At first I could not believe that the world trade center buildings 1 and 2 were taken down by demolitions, but after doing my research, seeing several documentaries on general demolitions I began to compare the collapse of building 7 to the footage of normal building demolitions. As I continued to research the events of 9/11 it became clear to me that there needs to be a serious independent study of the events and the collapse of buildings 1, 2 and 7. Now, there is no question in my mind that all three building were taken down by controlled demolitions. One question that I did have in the following days of 9/11 was the statement that all steel was being sent to China, having grown up in a steel town in Ohio, I couldn't imagine that the steel would not have been kept for investigation.

Presentation by Richard Gage was convincing. In the future, needs to address questions relating to number of people that would have to have been involved, the fact that no one has come forward to expose their role, and how the complicated and lengthy installation of multiple precisely located explosives was carried out without detection.

Watching the Towers collapse on 9/11 was a total horror.... but even at that moment, you know, it just did not look right. A comprehensive investigation was never part of the agenda.

Lost in the fog. I have been on personal crusade about the lies and cover up way before 9/11. Expected as much and believe more is coming.

As an Architect practicing around the world, I believe in my profession and want to defend the architects of record for WTC and compare the new test against their design.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
An event this significant must be investigated in the terms and methods of science, and free of political bias. The rigor of ae911truth.org and others, like David Ray Griffin, have shown the official account of the 9/11 events to be a fraud. In light of the human life and liberties being taken based on that fraud, American architects and engineers have a patriotic duty to invoke their credentials on behalf of the victims and the integrity of our nation.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Watching Mr. Gage's presentation and reading several background articles, I have to ask myself, "Why didn't I see this earlier?" With even my limited understanding of physics and building demolition, it should have been completely obvious from watching the original event that the theories presented by the mass media machine we are all plugged into were baloney. It is never too late to find the truth.

As I wrote to the professor of forensic engineering at Columbia University after hearing Mr. Gage: "I think Gage's strength is that he strictly relies on network video clips, physical evidence, and eyewitness accounts to present his alternative analysis.

I am actively promoting the hidden information about 9-11 Truth, as I have been since Feb. 05, 1000s of letters, contacts across the US, and personal presentations throughout W. Virginia.
A double reason for this investigation, it shows the great deception of our national media, and leads to much darker, sinister events on going. You must view and accept one premise, to be able to consider another. If you truly evaluate the available facts, you will quickly see much more horrific things on on-going, covered by the same deceptive main stream media.
As predicted by Pres. Eisenhower, our military-industrial (media) complex has gained a ruling, and unseen hand over all our affairs, for their profit and control. As the evidence is careful excluded from main stream media, most are completely unaware.

"Do not attribute to deviousness, what can be explained by stupidity." (Lew Wallace, while Territorial Governor of New Mexico). I have no doubt that controlled demolition played an essential role in the collapse of all three buildings. But I can imagine scenarios in which the explosives were placed (for stupid reasons) without expecting the attack by airplanes and then were implemented in response to that attack (again for stupid reasons). Conspiracy requires a level of intelligence not in evidence. Cover up is the primal response to stupidity.

My questions focus on #7 WTC. There can be no doubt that it was a controlled demolition. The only question is why was it done on that day. And if there were any doubts, why can't the circumstances be more fully examined?
A B-25 bomber flew directly into the Empire State Building on a Saturday, and the building was open for business the following Monday, with the exception of the most adversely affected areas near the top.
Different type of aircraft - different type of building. But it is difficult to reconcile that instance with what happened to 7WTC on 9/11.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
At 1.8 million square feet, WTC 7 was possibly larger than any building on the West Coast. Bank of America (1.4 million sf) and the Transamerica Pyramid (.5 million sf), the two highest buildings in San Francisco, are together only slightly greater in area. Few Americans know that WTC 7 collapsed, even fewer know how big it was. I have read that its collapse was shown only one time on television; in its documentaries about the WTC collapse, PBS not only didn't explain the collapse of WTC7 but never even mentioned the collapse of a third building, because doing so would have undermined their conclusion that planes and jet fuel were responsible for the collapses. Much evidence exists of explosions throughout the WTC buildings. Persistent pools of 2000 degree metal can only be explained by the presence of thermite/thermate, used in planned demolitions. Squibs, puffs of smoke characteristic of planned demolitions, can be clearly seen in advance of the collapses. The official story does not explain the collapse of WTC7 or the collapse of the cores of WTC 1 and 2. YouTube videos of a BBC reporter announcing the collapse of WTC7 just prior to its actual collapse is convincing proof that the authorities had advance knowledge of its imminent collapse. There is just one explanation for the evidence associated with these collapses: demolition by expertly planned and placed explosives.

After studying various reports, videos, and other information, it is my opinion that the reopening of the 911 commission is warranted. The recent book written by two 911 commission leaders includes a first chapter entitled "We were set up to fail". This does not do justice to the lives lost. This event was tragic and does not deserve to be clouded in unanswered questions. The "pulling" of building seven has to my knowledge not been explained.

It was always a fascinating building complex to me.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Very hard to understand the 'complete' lack of concrete rubble in the debris field. Even had the basements filled with concrete topping slab debis. There should have been a stack of jumbled building elements about 9 more stories above grade. The core columns were fully welded yet none were longer than 40 ft (max trucking length). This event as portrayed by the NIST Report totally messes with my understanding of how buildings behave. I haven't been able to reconcile the promoted theory of collapse with the way I know buildings to behave.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I clearly remember watching the second plane hit the tower to this day. I, like many, thought I was watching a cut from a movie! It did strike me odd that the (2) towers and bldg. #7 collaspsed so quickly and so vertically. I did not understand why bldg. #7 collaspsed in the first place??? It was my understanding from college structural engineering classes at KSU that the twin towers were designed to withstand a jet airplane strike. So, with all the information that has come out about how the 9-11 Commission was conducted, how politics ruled the hearings, how they overlook key factors, and other related elements, I strongly insist that Congress conduct another independent commission and keep politics out of the hearings!

After reviewing the data presented by the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth Organization and through my independent assessment of the data I have reviewed, and based on my 40+ years of professional experience, I have concluded that it would be nearly impossible for any of the principal World Trade Center Towers to collapse in the manner or in the recorded time frame as a result of any fire or explosion caused solely by the impact of terrorist-guided aircraft alone. Braced steel frame buildings simply don't collapse in a symmetrical manner with a uniform plume of debris in 102 or 56 minutes respectively with modern structural design standards and state-of-the-art life-safety systems which must be continuously inspected by local building inspectors based on ever increasing performance standards centered on human survival.

As a licensed Architect or engineer we have received practical experience and relatively rigorous testing.

I think the main reason many people don't want to even consider the possibility (some say certainty) that the reasons for the WTC collapse is that it makes you consider the implications--the who/what/whys...and forces you to consider some ideas so horrible and evil that no one would want to face it. But reluctance is not a valid reason for not seeking the answer.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Not necessarily disputing geo-social origins of: the hi-jacked plane(s), etc. My opinion is strictly limited to the physical collapse.
In my opinion, the collapse(s) were possibly mechanically / explosively-assisted. By many accounts these buildings housed some very important tenants, which may keep very important information files, etc. There is the possibility that these buildings have been "pre-wired" to be demolished if security were ever to be breached in a major way. Anecdotaly speaking: remember the opening scenes of the original "Mission Impossible"?..."this tape will self-destruct in 30 seconds". In my opinion the term "pull it" had to do with orders to destroy the properties due to un-avoidable security breaches that would ensue as a result of a myriad of persons going into previously secured areas of the buildings....thus the twin towers and the third building. This is my own opinion, I have never read this nor heard this anywhere. It is only my opinion/theory.

Seems to me that since explosives had been planted in WTC towers before 9/11 and the fact that the WTC 9/11 plane crashes weren't random (the towers were the target). It seems quite logical that some additional explosives were planted within the towers via insider or security breach to increase destructive impact of attack on towers.

In spite of the fact that much evidence has been destroyed, a new, fresh investigation of 9/11 events and related matters is now required.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
In the beginning I believed the official story. But after the shock wore off, I found I could not forget the way the buildings fell. The debris was not consistent with a normal building collapse. Eye witnesses heard explosions, and the collapse of all three buildings had more resemblance to a controlled demolition than an unplanned structural failure. I have read many points of view on the matter and can no longer agree with the official story.

I have watched many videos of the 9/11 towers collapse. I do not think that these demolitions could have taken place without some form of high level government involvement.
But even if it can not be shown that the WTC 1 & 2 were brought down by the plane crashes it leaves open the collapse of WTC 7. WTC 7 came down like a controlled demolition hours after WTC 1 & 2 and long after the "small fires" in it were extinguished.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I found the squib charges in WTC 7 to be irrefuatble evidence of controlled demolition. The implications, while disturbing, reveal more than ever a country without the ideals of Thomas Jefferson, and Benjaimin Franklin.
I do think that an un-biased and thorough investigation of the
collapse needs to be performed and taking into account all the evidence that
has come to light by all of the various sources. While I would like my name
to remain on your petition, I recommend for your own credibility and that of
all of our names that less convincing and ambiguous aspects be eliminated
from your arguments along with discussions of motive. I think consideration
needs to be given to many possibilities as non-controlled collapses are
nearly completely outside of human experience; whether architect, engineer,
or even building demolition expert, none of us have an expectation of how
forces at this scale and in these condition should behave. After spending a
fair amount of web time investigating myself, I have seen a lot of real
amateurish conspiracy mongers that are giving your cause a really bad name.
While I believe your spokesman is the most credible I have seen, by keeping
your arguments scientific and non-emotional you elevate your own position
and improve chances for the end goal, a complete investigation into the
collapses.

As I watched the collapse occur on the morning of 9/11/01 I was shocked because I had been sure that the buildings would not collapse as I watched for the time between the impact and the collapse. The failure mode made no sense to me as I watched it. I read the article in the New Yorker about the structural engineer of the building about a month later. He wondered if the fault lay in a cost cutting measure at the time of construction that was forced on him - one in which less insulation was wrapped around the steel. He blamed himself for the failure. I find the 9/11 Blueprint for Truth Evidence far more convincing.

Originally from Maine, I grew up in a somewhat conservative family and when I could vote for the first time I voted for Nixon.

While discussing politics with a conservative friend, he asked me how my political views could change from being conservative to Liberal. My response was "I got an education".
That's what we need here. We need to learn the truth, educate people, and take steps to ensure this never happens again.

I am convinced that the 2 minutes of fire generated by jet fuel is not enough to bring down the towers.

The investigation was flawed.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I believe that it is physically/scientifically impossible for the heat from the burning planes to have caused the collapse. If the steel had failed by heat, as has been claimed, the building would have deformed.
The speed of the building's collapse, indicating no resistance as it fell, further indicates that only carefully placed and timed detonation devices throughout the skeletal structure could account for the sudden implosion of the towers into their footprints.
The only plausible reason for collapse of WTC 7, which was not hit by any plane, is similarly, timed explosives within the building.

The fall never made sense to me. I know a lot about concrete and steel with respect to building failure, and though I have read the arguments for "natural" collapse and wanted to believe them, my own sense of logic denied me. I read up on the design of Minoru Yamasaki's building (I had once visited his office in Michigan) and I cannot understand how even the heat of jet fuel would have caused the floors to slide the way they did, or so perfectly vertically. Also, I have seen a lot of buildings demolished in Detroit, enough to raise suspicion.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
How did the 3rd building (WTC7) fall? It was not hit by a plane. It had relatively minor fires burning within and its collapse was reported by the BBC approximately 1/2 hour before it fell with a picture of the building in the background of the reporter's reporting of the story. That clip used to be on YouTube before they pulled it off. It fell completely into its own footprint and looks exactly like a controlled demolition. A building is similar to a tree. If you weaken part of it; for example. by chainsawing part of the trunk then it will fall to the ground on an angle. However, if you take it down in a controlled way, by cutting off pieces at a time then it will come down in a controlled fashion. The same thing had to happen with the 2 large towers. The airplane strikes were a foil or a "smokescreen" for the controlled demolition explosives placed throughout the buildings. If the airplanes were responsible for their destruction then both would have fallen on an angle into the surrounding city blocks. Instead, they came down at near free fall speed into their own footprints.

It appears that there is more to the story than simply that planes made the Twin Towers fall. I would like to know why they were not better protected by national security and why were they brought down.

Type 1 - fireproofed structural steel in buildings just would not melt and cause a controlled collapse in the manner shown as all three buildings did. The structural steel beams and columns had spray fireproofing on it and the buildings had fire sprinklers. The collapse of these building is even more unlikely given the time it took from impact of the planes till collapse.

In this case, it doesn't take an expert to comprehend the massive energy necessary to pulverize these major high-rise towers. They were built to last. As such, buildings like this just don't turn to dust in a matter of seconds as a result of fire coupled with the force of gravity. Other buildings similar to Seven experienced fires of greater duration and intensity and did not dissolve. Only these three buildings disappeared into a cloud of dust taking with them thousands of souls. Why?

The free-fall collapse of the fire protected steel-frame structure of World Trade Center #7 could not have been caused by the limited structural damage and office fires which were observed prior to collapse. The actual scientific/forensic evidence (i.e. Thermate particles in the dust and molten steel during debris extraction), calls into question the official 911 commission report (NIST) and points to a professionally controlled demolition by incendiary devices.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Reason dictates that the conventional explanation is not supported by the physical evidence, the laws of physics, statics and logic. One anomaly in the conventional account would raise doubt, but there are scores of them and so the collapse by fire is pure fiction.
Since fire did not bring the towers down, then some sort of explosion(s) which destroyed the integrity of a structure with multiple safety factors seems likely. The evidence presented by Richard Gage and Prof Steven Jones makes the case very well that explosive devices were probably the means used to destroy them.
This leads to the frightening and unsettling conclusion that there was another conspiracy associated with 911 and the one we were told was probably a cover for the real one.
It should be noted that if any one of the events/collapses/ or fundamental underpinnings of the conventional conspiracy theory falls, then this puts into doubt about the explanation for all the events of that day.
In the Shankeville event and the pentagon event, there is so much doubt and fog, as much or more than there is at the WTC event that this seems to support the belief that we were not told the truth about the events and the cause of those events on that day.
We need the truth as painful and frightening as it may be.

Steel frame towers cannot naturally behave as exhibited at WTC. They can't fall at near free-fall,; they can't right themselves after listing more than 5 degrees (why is there no talk about the conservation of momentum?). the core columns cannot shear as evidenced in the rubble pile. In the entire history of human building, only three steel-frame buildings fell into their own footprints after relatively minor fires. They all fell in the same complex, on the same day. What are the odds?

The almost perfect vertical collapse of the 3 buildings seems to indicate the use of explosives at the ground level.
Any partial shear or buckling of the columns at the point of impact would have likely caused the superstructures to lean over and fall out of the footprint of the buildings.
However this theory as valid as it looks leaves a question mark as to how could it be possible to set up a large complicity that has not been neither discovered nor even suspected.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
As an architecture student, I was on the 100th floor of the WTC second tower during its construction. I was personally escorted to the top by one of the head engineers for the buildings. I had an opportunity to see the unclad structure as it was being built. There were no curtain or interior walls Given the size and height of these buildings, I find it totally incongruous that three buildings would "pancake" almost symmetrically. I would think that there would be uneven failure, melting of the structure, more to one side than another in at least one of the structures. The planes crashed into one side of the buildings, and unevenly - not on a level keel. That, to me would indicate more damage on one side of the building and more on one floor than another. All three buildings seemed to collapse inward on themselves with out relative little damage to nearby buildings in all directions. Why didn't at least one tower upper section tilt and fall to the side. And building seven was not square. If it collapsed from fire, why pancake instead of falling to one side or end where the fire was located? The fire was not in the exact middle. This is all too perfect - more reminiscent of a controlled demolition for ALL three structures. There are far too many "coincidences" to even discuss here.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
There is very little question in my mind that the collapse of all three WTC buildings was the result of planned controlled demolition based on the evidence that has been presented. Most importantly, all three buildings came down at nearly free-fall speed directly into their footprints, molten iron with traces of sulfur and magnesium were found underneath the rubble of all three buildings weeks after 9/11, and nano iron spheres and unexploded thermatic material has been found throughout the dust at numerous locations. This must be re-investigated based on all of the newly discovered, and the "911 commission report" omitted evidence. Three thousand innocent people died that day, and to date, nearly that many have now died as a result of breathing the toxic dust produced by these murderous acts. Congress, we demand an new independent investigation with full subpoena power.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
There are hundreds of additional facts that contradict the official story of 9/11. It is time for a truly independent investigation that addresses all the questions asked by the citizens.
9/11 was one of the most pivotal events in world history. Its impact will be felt for years to come. We owe it to ourselves to go beyond the sound bites and the simplified official story. This is an extremely complicated story with numerous players and motives. The 9/11 time line facts don't all make sense or fit neatly together. It's a story full of espionage, deceit, and lies. But if there are forces out there tricking us, they can only succeed if we, the general public, remain ignorant and passive.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
There is some doubt that the Trade Center Towers could have collapsed without demolition explosives being utilized. What caused the third tower to fall? It might be more reliable to have a non-governmental "Citizens' Investigation Convention" comprised of experts and participants, who are not under the influence of past or current Administrations, Congress, the Pentagon or other agencies, political lobbies, etc. It might be possible for pro bono legal specialists to initiate and monitor a broader "freedom of information act" so that additional evidence and facts can be ascertained. Others, including volunteers or paid investigators, journalists, and the media (PBS, C-Span, etc.) can play a role. Americans deserve answers to their questions --- from reliable sources best able to gather and present the findings.

I have followed the 911 collapses since they occurred. Reading all the books, hearing lectures, indie film "Loose Change" and I am convinced that this was an inside job.

It's a hard pill to swallow. Honest, truth seeking people cannot avoid thinking of the horrendous consequences that necessarily accompany facing the facts of a "controlled demolition". For years, like many, I ignored the evidence, not because it wasn't obvious. It is obvious only once you focus on the facts. It was because I, like so many millions, took the official story for granted, without question.
The evidence is overwhelming for anybody who cares to face the horrible truth.

I always felt doubt about the official story and was uncomfortable taking a strong position on the issue in public.
I always knew that 9/11 was premeditated and likely foreknown by neoconservative elements of our government and other rouge entities. Likely even Israel.
After listening to Mr. Gage's presentation and looking further into the evidence however I am convinced there is no way any of these buildings could have fallen short of a controlled demolition. The evidence is overwhelming. I no longer have any doubt. I am also proud to be part of an industry which has come out on the side of truth despite the consequences. Kudos to Richard Gage for being one of the best of us.
I feel a detailed, public investigation with teeth needs to be made here and the perpetrators of crimes brought to justice.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Though I have seen several presentations on the internet about the 911 events, I do not consider myself sufficiently knowledgeable enough to render a professional opinion as to the sequence of events that may have caused the collapse of WTC 1, 2, & 7. However, the following events seem to raise significant enough question to merit a full re-investigation of the calamities of New York as well as the Pentagon:
The flashing of light in the intermediate floors of WTC 1 & 2.
The molten steel int the basements
The absence of any steel framing of the upper floors.
Several hour delay in the collapse of WTC 7
The similarity of the WTC 7 to a planned implosion
In the Pentagon, the hole in the side of the building was of a size that could only mean the wings were severed off and no evidence of wings were ever found.
These observations are based on internet pictures and stories I saw several months ago, and I am sure that If I were to review the pictures and written stories, I could find a lot more to comment on. Suffice it to say, in my opinion, a re-investigation MUST be done.

Since that historic morning when 911 occurred and my firm shut down to watch the events unfolding on TV, I have often wondered about how two commercial aircraft could have destroyed three high rise buildings. Over the years since that sad day I have read several articles about the structural implications of the 911 disaster and talked to other architects and engineers. It is obvious that many knowledgeable professionals question the previous conclusions about what has happened. It is time to find, document, and react to the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
This is the most important issue of our time in this country. The 9/11 Commission members themselves started with the assumption that al Queda was responsible for the crime, were deprived of vital information and had a very limited budget-this commission was designed to cover up the truth instead of investigate it. It is time to re-look at the facts. The steel buildings came down as if exploded in a demolition, with Building #5 not even being hit. Thermite had been discovered in debris from across the city-( this is an explosive substance) and not reported. Never in the history of the world has a fire-resistive steel frame building been brought down by fire and all of a sudden we have 3? "Controlled Demolition Company", the firm that removed the debris, was the same firm that cleared the site of the Murrah Federal Building-anything fishy?

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I watched on TV live the TT falling and thought to myself during the collapse that - this building doesn't fall this way. I had enough experience even at that time with steel moment frames to realize that they don't pancake from the top down, especially if the assumed failure (the planes heat) point in a 1/3 of the way down. The only way for a building to fall like the TT is if it was a masonry type structure and the upper columns failed first from a heavy roof load. Well, it's not.
In my opinion IF the heat was sufficient enough to melt the steel at the planes location, the frame would have buckled and the top part of the building would have toppled over. Of course causing damage to the lower part of the structure but not a pancake collapse. Plus - both towers collapsing in the exact same symmetrical pattern - no way.! Also, what about building #7 collapsing the same way when nothing touched it!. Or where is the plane debris a the Pentagon.?
These building were brought down by design.
In looking at the impact over time I think the intent was to implement the HomeLand Department, the patriot act and instill a new culture of fear and control.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
The "evidence" produced as the "official story" related to the supposed collapse of three buildings at ground zero in New York City simply cannot be true. Much more comprehensive, scienfitic evidence has been independently produced. Mounds of evidence were rapidly removed from the site, and the presence of molten metals and dust particles containing evidence of thermate are too compelling to ignore. The official story, however, does just that. It is an insult to our professional intelligence to take the "official story" at face value. Too many questions remain as to exactly what happened on 9/11/01.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Having watched several documentaries on the destruction of the towers, I have come to the conclusion that the latest information I saw in PBS supports my belief that the destruction of the towers was NOT a normal collapse for bldgs of their type. My experiences with explosives and cutting steel using military demolitions supports the evidence I saw on this informational documentary. I DID believe the initial graphic documentaries describing structural failure of the steel pins attaching the exterior shell to the center core. However, the evidence of explosions, and the chemical traces that have were shown in 911truth documentary are correct in my opinion and support a further investigation as well as prosecution of the parties involved in ordering the destruction of the towers. Lastly, the suggestion that the purpose of the war in Afghanistan is to seek out the cause/director of the plane bombs leaves me with great disappointment and a failing faith in the leadership of this country.

It was my gut response on that morning that there was no way the towers could ever collapse, but they did. I was personally embarrassed but feel vindicated on seeing video for the first time some years ago and then again today. The chemical makeup of the dust, the horizontal explosions, explosive projectiles and pulverized bone fragments are all clear evidence of explosive charges. I hope the full story will be uncovered once and for all.

I had gotten up early on Sept 11 2001 to catch up on some Architectural work, while my 18 month old son slept in the other room. As I watched the towers collapse on TV, my first thought was that the buildings fell too neatly. My second thought was that my life and the life of my son would change dramatically from that moment forward.
Reading through the information that later came out about the collapses, I've never had a doubt that it was a planned demo and attack. The evidence is just too strong and compelling.

When i first saw the film/television coverage i was shocked that the structures did not topple
over sideways bending at the points of jetliner impact.
This is counter-intuitive or antithetical that they would uniformly collapse with asymmetrical impacts.
Building 7 collapse in this manner is complete nonsense because it did not have anything close to the magnitude of damage of aircraft impacts.

Architecture — Degreed
• Bio:
After receiving his Bachelor of Architecture Cum Laude from the University of Southern California, Alan worked for a number of private architectural firms in the Los Angeles area before moving to Washington, DC, to serve as a hospital architect for the U.S. Public Health Service. He went on to get his Masters Degree in Architecture at UC Berkeley before settling permanently in Pennsylvania to pursue a career in building product research with Armstrong World Industries.
Alan joined Armstrong in 1969 where he was initially involved with new product development for modular housing, passive solar energy, and furniture systems. In the mid-1970’s, he began concentrating on new approaches to integrated ceilings. He was deeply involved in responding to the Federal Government’s “Peachbook” performance specification approach for office buildings and continued a similar private sector effort as Chairman of the Integrated Ceiling Subsystem Task Group for the Construction Research Council in Washington.
More recently, as Manager of Technical Information for Armstrong Floor Products, Alan focused on providing assistance to specifiers, contractors, and end users; new product testing and refinement; training salespeople; and writing technical literature (including computerized product specifications). He also developed an AIA-approved resilient flooring continuing education seminar program for Armstrong commercial field and distributor representatives to use with architects and interior designers.
Alan is a past member of both the American and the International Solar Energy Societies, was a representative for Armstrong to ASTM, and is currently a member of the Construction Specifications Institute, the Society of Architectural Historians, Tau Sigma Delta Honor Society in Architecture and Allied Arts, and an associate member of the American Institute of Architects. He has spoken to a variety of audiences over the years and taught in a number of classroom environments. He was invited to speak to large audiences of hospital architects at two health care symposiums in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and authored a paper about flooring in health care facilities that was translated into Chinese for a conference in Shanghai.
Now retired from Armstrong, Alan is devoting more effort to his long-time passion for research in post-quantum physics and metaphysical studies with groups based in New York City, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. His interests take him to many parts of the world as he pursues subjects such as alternative energy sources, sacred geometry, archaeology, and investigative mythology. He is a strong advocate for moving away from a fossil fuel-based economy.

I was in New York City on 9/11/01, so am one of millions to witness this destruction from relatively near, and remained in NY for weeks after. Knowing like many that all was surely not as it appeared, we brought in films and lecturers to Kansas City starting in 2001 in order to educate others of the need for real and impartial investigations of what is certainly a "false flag" event. This evil deed must not continue to go unpunished. The actual perpetrators will yet be brought to justice, and through this we can correct and adjust for our future. We the people can always handle the truth, yet most of those in power are proven irresponsible and cannot allow the truth, much less demand it. We demand an actual arms length technical investigation, outsourced to a truly independent commission, to follow to wherever the truth itself leads. We should also demand actual and thorough criminal investigations and prosecutions, starting with basic evidence from the crime scene itself.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I don't believe that the fact that the airplanes that struck the North and South Towers by themselves made the Twin Towers fall. I do not doubt that the possibility of a controlled demolition was used to purposely bring the buildings down. Somewhere in a remote desert, maybe in Arizona, a scaled down version of the World Trade Center - ALL 7 buildings as they once stood, should be built and then have similarly scaled down - remote controlled U.A.V.'s flown into them with a fuel similar to what the planes were carrying and let it burn for the exact amount of time before the collapse, to see if the reenacted fires would by themselves result in a collapse of the towers. This would be a test similar to the tests that are conducted inside wind tunnels for the design of aircraft.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I have amounted the denial of the true reasons for the WTC buildings' collapse in the architecture and engineering field to a simple emotional unwillingness to examine the facts.
If you know the collapse times, if you know what fireproofing is, if you know how little fireproofing would be "knocked off" by the plane crashes (comparatively in terms of the whole building size), if you have a comprehension of steel and concrete strength and what would happen in a true failure, if you know EXACTLY how these towers were built--you would know that is absolutely impossible that the WTC buildings collapsed due to fire caused by airline crashes.
Again, the denial of the true reasons for the WTC buildings' collapse in the architecture and engineering field must be amounted to a simple emotional unwillingness to examine the facts--and I have met many deniers.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Dear Mr. Gage:
Thank you for taking on the architectural and engineering review of the collapses on 9/11 of the buildings at the World Trade Center site. I was dubious of the official explanations from the outset. You see, as a professional city planner in New York, I knew those buildings and their design. I attended and participated in the hearings at the New York City Hall when the buildings were first proposed. I argued for the buildings on the basis that the interior core represented a way of internalizing the cost of mass transit, which in our system is almost impossible to finance through public bond issues.
So I was well aware of the strength of the core with its steel columns, surrounding the elevators, and stairwells. I should also mention that with a degree in architecture and instruction in steel design (my Yale professor had worked on the Empire State Building) I was and am no novice in structural design.
When I saw the rapid collapse of the towers, I knew that they could not come down the way they did without explosives and the severing of core columns at the base. The spewing of debris from the towers where the planes entered also could not have occurred simply with just a structural collapse. Something else was happening to make this occur.
Moreover, the symmetrical collapse is strong evidence of a controlled demolition. A building falling from asymmetrical structural failure would not collapse so neatly, nor so rapidly, as you have pointed out.
What we are faced with is a lie of such proportions that even to suggest it makes one subject to ridicule and scorn. Who could have done such a terrible thing? Certainly not our government or military. Rogue elements in the intelligence agencies? I have no idea.
But I do know that the official explanation doesn't hold water. An open, honest re-opening of the case is in order. A near majority of Americans agrees with this view. Let us keep pressing for an honest investigation.

When I saw the events of 9/11, I was a senior in high school. At the time I did not know much about building construction in general, but I could not overcome the feeling that something was wrong about the collapses. I remember thinking how fortunate they were that the buildings did not fall over, killing more people in the process. However, after revisiting the events of 9/11 six years later, I have realized that there is much more that must be investigated and this investigation is of absolute importance, given the stakes of the outcome.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
From the very first moment I saw the images on the TV of the towers falling, I felt there must be some reason for the collapse other than the plane crashes and resulting fires in the buildings. It seemed to me that the damage would be limited to floors where the planes hit and the fire was able to spread and therefore any collapse would be partial, but not total. I also wondered how the failure of this magnitude was possible when buildings are designed with redundant fire and structural systems to address instances specifically like this event.

Given that the need for a new "Pearl Harbor" was announced by the crafters & signers of The Project for a New American Century in order to hasten their objectives TWO FULL YEARS before the 9/11 operation took place; I was not completely surprised when it happened.
There is a huge old secret government WW2 bunker under Grand Central Terminal in NYC.
It so happens has private rail line connecting into the rest of the subway system. Cheney uses this system regularly to this day. (as seen on the Discovery Channel)
I believe it is the logical the staging area for the men and materiel needed to place the devices in WTC 1,2 & 7..... in my opinion.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I believe from my professional experience and from reviewing the footage that the building collapses, were not from fires or the plane impacts. From my studies of building collapse in college structural courses no building collapses that we studied collapsed such a uniform manner, and speed. There is only one way that this occurred and that is for internal explosions on the structural support columns similar to a demolition of a building would occur. There was not enough damage to building 7 to cause a structural collapses. This is my opinion on the collapses, a basic understanding of structural properties of steel and concrete, a knowledge of physics, and some common since have brought me to this conclusion.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I have been pondering for several years how the buildings could have fallen in the manner they did, given an explosion so far from the foundations of the building, I find it hard to believe the given explanations. How does jet fuel leak down the cavities of the building all the way to the footings of these building to provide such a clean free fall. If a truck hits a house, it may fall to the ground, however portions of it will remain splintered and fragmented, however not obliterated.......

I have a BA degree in Architecture from UC Berkeley. I graduated in 1985. After raising my children...I am now contemplating getting my license, finally.
• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Being from the architectural/engineering field...I have always been fascinated about the collapse of the two towers. I, like many people, viewed the "conspiracy" tapes on www.youtube.com showing these supposed bombs going off as the towers fell. Frankly...what I saw didn't convince me of any nefarious actions.
I never did quite understand how the building's collapsed completely within it's footprint....instead of tipping over. That always puzzled me greatly. I, like most of America, bought the pablum that they fed us.....it was the fires from the planes that melted the support columns. The fire proofing was either missing from the columns (as they were in the process of retrofitting this at the time of the collapse) or it was knocked off from the impact of the jets.
I read many items on these theories...including a book called "102 Minutes", which pretty much settled my curiosity about any doubts I had. However, I'm not a scientist, or structural engineer so I just accepted what was said....but always had a kernel of doubt still in my mind.
So I hear Richard Gage on KGO, San Francisco this morning and BECAUSE of his expertise and his eloquent explanation about the forensic facts and basic science disproving the "story" we were given....I sat up and took notice. I think many people are afraid to voice their doubts for fear of sounding like a "nut"....but when science enters into the facts...I think people will listen. I did.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I am convinced that the 9/11 commission has not used all evidence that was available. I believe that collapse of WTC 1-2-7 was initiated by explosion. Two main reasons are the dust clouds and the free fall of the towers.
As US citizen, I have the right for a investigation including technical forensic methods. I cannot accept that politics of on nation are build on falsehood and lies. I am ready to demonstrate in a mass rally.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Having studied modern architecture, sky-scraper design, and passed several structural engineering classes in college; the official 911 story seems unlikely. Also having studied politics, history, and as a member of the US Military I have serious reservations regarding the official reported causes of 911. Even if the attacks were totally unexpected, and there was no civil defense plan for such events (ie NY Airbases, ground-to-air missiles, etc), and there were no CIA or other black operations involved, then we should at least ask how the towers collapsed straight down, as though planned to minimize damage to surrounding buildings, and demolished expediently.
Was it embarrassment? Quick cleanup to save our suffering the images of burning towers? Too expensive to renovate the buildings later? To avoid controversy and investigation they were removed from view asap, but by who? FEMA? The building owners? There are many unanswered questions from the Bush-BinLadin connection, to the FEMA-Tower connection. Even if the structure failed from the attacks, the chances that all three buildings would “pan-cake” seems like non-sense. Perhaps one could pan-cake for multiple stories, but at a point the consistent fall would become lopsided due to the probability of resistance from numerous structural members, and develop a natural tilt. This tilt would produce torque, or rotational movement about points, and the laws of physics would tend to bring the forces down in faster ways to the sides, rather than through the entire strength of the remaining body of the building firmly rooted by numerous supports, including a central concrete elevator and stair core, and on a solid foundation.

I have viewed different videos of the collapses of the World Trade Center buildings and watched eyewitness accounts of the collapses. After considering people's accounts and evidence demonstrating how demolished buildings go down, I have reason to believe the government's explanations are not clear or false. For these reasons a private party investigation is needed to uncover the truth for what happened.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I believe there are too many things that have been covered up or never released wihch leads me to believe we do not know the truth. The evidence captured of the collapse on video is extremely strange, i.e. the windows exploding 20 stories and more below where the building was falling, free fall speed, and no evidence of any concrete floor and/or metal deck! If the building "pancaked" then where are the floor plates? Why was the steel never investigated and why was it sold to the Chinese so quickly? Too many things were covered up to not believe this was a conspiracy!

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
My view is political.
Once the planes hit the tower and when they collapsed. I knew that something fishy had occurred. With a contested election months earlier and the beautiful demolition of the towers and building seven, fascism was at our door.
Today's fascism is not the same as Germany's fascism. Fascism is being constructed with our diminished freedom, corporate handouts, demonization of unions and all social services, unless it is corporate. Today corporations control our political system with more freedom than ever (you don't get corporate money you don't get elected). You are not part of the two party (one party) system you don't get to debate on our corporate airways.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
There is an obvious doubt to the way in which (and the speed in which) the two towers collapsed. To a lay person it may be a second thought and an issue for an expert. Well, here are the experts, the professionals, who look at what happened and say, "The official investigation just does not add up." If you have over 1,000 professionals, people deemed by their respective states to be competent enough to design structures - to be THE licensed authority on such matters, deem the official investigation to be incomplete or incorrect - shouldn't we listen?

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I find no historical or factual evidence to support the official theory of a pancake collapse due to a gas fire.
Studying video footage of these towers being destroyed, I do not see a normal demolition collapse. Something totally new happened here: 200,000+ tons of steel de-molecularized and instantaneously turned into powder in mid-air. Why doesn't the steel hit the ground as in a normal demolition? Where are all the concrete and steel decking floors stacked up on the ground, as in a normal demolition? Where is the 70-story steel antenna spire and the football field of core elevator columns in the pile of debris for either tower? I challenge anyone to review the video footage while asking themselves these questions. Beyond obvious demolition techniques, what new technology is being used here? 90,000+ tons of concrete and 200,000+ tons of steel do not just disappear in midair, and float way as dust… yet that is what the video footage reveals. Matter doesn’t just disintegrate. Why isn’t the paper littering the streets of Manhattan burnt to a crisp?… how is it that organic matter of (paper) was not affected as the mountains of steel, concrete, office furniture, plumbing, electrical, mechanical units… all turned to dust? More questions remaining unanswered by the official story include: The non-resistance free-fall timing of the disintegrations, pictures of the diagonally molten cut base columns (used to “walk” a building during demolition), unexplained basement explosions, the appearance of molten steel pouring out of the windows during the disintegrations, thermal evidence of molten steel in the rubble a weeks after the event, a pyroclastic cloud engulfing the island and leaving it 4inches deep in dust, the findings of an unknown substance of nano-thermite, and the collapse of Building Seven in a more traditional demolition-style freefall without significant fire or structural reason.
These officially unexplained things are outside the natural laws of physics of a simple gas fire, especially for steel structures designed to withstand larger, multiple jetliner impact and structural fires.
It would be interesting to follow the money-trail: were the buildings outdated, losing money, up to code, an environmental hazard costing more to fix than just tear down? Do we dare ask ourselves... Have we overlooked a profitable reason(s) for a secret demolition? To catalog the unfurling worldwide events since this day in 2001, I think a light must be held to the darkness and the question must be asked of those who have gained from this event, and what new technology coupled with nano-explosives can de-molecularize matter in mid-air?
Why isn’t the 70-story steel antenna spire and football field of elevator core steel columns of each tower in the piles on the ground? How has all this matter been turned to dust in midair? Literally.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
Questions and concerns immediately following "destruction of Twin Towers," particularly after hearing details and seeing images later that same evening. My education led me to believe that most and certainly these particular buildings would withstand airplane impacts and fires. WTC 7 collapse and my familiarity with Meridian Tower in Philadelphia and several witnessed controlled demolitions while in Philadelphia convince me of controlled demolitions of the three WTC buildings on September 11th. Implications of this are extremely disquieting for myself as a citizen of this country and of enormous concern for notion of integrity in process of building design, planning, construction as well as quasi public process of zoning, funding facilitation large scale urban and or public projects.

I worked for a demolition company owned by William Bufalino jr. They were very interested in Walbridge Aldinger company's controlled demo of the Hudsons Building in Detroit. I know 911 was an inside job- probably CIA and mafia collaboration for sake of Oil alliance with Saudis and profitable reason to start a war. In addition twin towers were asbestos ridden outdated buildings- cost to demo would be in millions. Ownership of towers changed hands prior to 911 and costs from disaster profited Blackstone group. In addition security firm providing security was owned by Bush family relative. Inside job including Pentagon. Join "Airline Industry Whistleblowers" for more info.

• Personal 9/11 Statement:
I do not accept the official theory that WTC 7 collapsed symmetrically into its own footprint at nearly free fall speed due to structural damage and fires alone. An object falling to earth at free fall speed, by definition, does not encounter resistance along the way. The rigid structure of interconnected columns, beams, and girders provide substantial resistance to physical forces. Indeed, that is their function.
This is one of many reasons why I feel a new, independent investigation is necessary. The ramifications from the events of that day are enormous for the people of the world. It is our duty to strive for the truth.
