But no one is saying steel melted into liquid but you guys.
And carbon based fuels are all we have ever had to melt steel for a thousand years. Did the Damascenes use Florine to make their swords? Are you seriously suggesting that?
Here is a chart of various metals melting points.
Aluminum melts at 660*. I am sure there was a lot of aluminum in the towers. Maybe lots of zinc and brass. I don't know if they used much nickel, but it has a low melting point. The only really high melting point metal in the list is tungsten at 3000 degrees.
The whole argument about the steels is they gave up structural integrity. The portion of the towers beneath the fires was crunched by the weight of the upper stories.
People who have a clue, think people without clues trying to out guess the folks who know are demented.
