clean debate zone..doubt you can handle itWhy are loons like you still furthering these silly conspiracy theories?buildiing 7 had random office firesjet fuel can't melt steel beams
... but it can heat it enough to weaken it's structural integrity.
FACT: Jet fuel burns at 800° to 1500°F, not hot enough to melt steel (2750°F). However, experts agree that for the towers to collapse, their steel frames didn't need to melt, they just had to lose some of their structural strength, which requires much less heat.
New York deputy fire chief Vincent Dunn said:"I have never seen melted steel in a building fire,But I've seen a lot of twisted, warped, bent and sagging steel. What happens is that the steel tries to expand at both ends, but when it can no longer expand, it sags and the surrounding concrete cracks."
"Steel loses about 50 percent of its strength at 1100°F," notes senior engineer Farid Alfawak-hiri of the American Institute of Steel Construction. "And at 1800° it is probably at less than 10 percent." NIST also believes that a great deal of the spray-on fireproofing insulation was likely knocked off the steel beams that were in the path of the crashing jets, leaving the metal more vulnerable to the heat.
yeah I notice how all the trolls that troll in the conspiracy section everyday that have been here for years are avoiding this thread since they know they cant get into using one liner name calling or troll on this thread when getting taken to school by you since it is in the clean debate section.
Good to be in a section where the trolls dont come on one of these threads to try and derail it with one liner name calling.since they cant do that and they cant refute any of these facts,they are all avoiding this thread I see.
