Summary: Great book. Great evidence. Case closed.
Review: Don't listen to these arm-chair scientists, physicists and structural engineers that bash this book. Hufschmid shows that the government's story is a complete joke and could not have happened the way they say. Wake up propaganda slaves, demanding answers about the murders of 3.000 of your fellow citizens IS patriotic. The leaders you worship did this. Deal with it.
If this book has no merit, would a guy who doesn't even know the author spend $3,000,000 of his own money to promote and advertise it? Check the link and see if this book is a fairy tale or if what you believe is really fiction.

Summary: Flaming elevator shafts
Review: Even the ASCE/FEMA report accepts that essentially all the fuel was consumed in the initial fireballs and the subsequent 5-7 minutes of fire. The idea that the relatively small amount of jet fuel (kerosene) that might make it into some of the elevator shafts, absent any decent source of oxygen (remember that the elevator doors default to a closed position and were additionally protected by fire shutters precisely to prevent air from entering) could generate enough heat to melt the entire core simply makes no sense. And that these fires could reach their maximum temperature (after all, the steel should collapse when it's the hottest and weakest) so long after the crashes, about 100 minutes in the case of WTC-1, is simply absurd.
How would the fuel get atomized to make it flammable? You can flip matches into liquid kerosene all day without setting it on fire. Jet engines, and even furnaces, use very precise nozzles and regulated airflow to create an efficient flame. Pouring liquid kerosene down an elevator shaft doesn't begin to approximate these conditions.

Summary: Silly book
Review: Hufschmid's idea that the WTC and Building 7 were demolished with explosives that were placed in the buildings in preparation for the 9-11 attack is absurd.
Yes, there are a lot of unanswered questions, but the idea that hundreds of people got together to put explosives in the WTC and Blgd. 7 months before the attack is ludicrous.
I exchanged email with Hufschmid in December 2004 and when I started asking the Painful Question, he said he had no more time to communicate with me.
Hufschmid has an interesting thesis, but it does not hold weight.

Summary: After reading this, I am convinced 9/11 was a scam.
Review: I am an structural engineer. Whoever wrote that other article is ignorant of steel buildings. There has never been a steel building destroyed by fire, including ones where explosions occured. As that other reviewer said, there is no way that the impacts on the top floors was large enough to pulverize the concrete. Look at pictures of other buildiong collapses and you will see they look nothing like what happend at WTC. Moreover, building 7 was built entirely differently from the twin towers, yet it collapsed exactly the same way?Wake up and smell the coffee. Sounds like that other "engineer" is CIA or Mosad plant.

Summary: Wow! Science at last!
Review: I am blown away by the alleged engineer's comments. If you look at the video, you can see that when the very top first floors hit the floors below them, they are pulverized and the clouds of conrete dust come out of the windows at supersonic speeds. These top floors would not have the falling mass nor speed to pulverize them, nor eject such clouds. Moreover, even though it the floors might crash through the floors below, their speed would be slowed below the free fall speed. Moreover, the pieces of the building would not be so uniform. Examine any building destroyed by artillary or bombing and later fire. This was a controlled explosion beyond any doubt. Would an architect design a building that would collapse when one or two floors collapsed? The engineering is all there to look at.

Summary: the truth can be painful
Review: I have spent much, much time investigating 9-11. I don't take lightly accusations of it being an inside job, but the evidence is overwhelming. Mr. Hufschmid and many others have done good work raising questions that our government and media deem unimportant. As for the towers, Craig Hill's new video TREASON shows the "Squibs", which are accelerated jets of smoke propelled by explosives, exiting the building well ahead of the collapse. And they are visible on Building 7 as well. The, quite literal, smoking gun.
History shows 9-11 is nothing new. False flag operations to go to war are the norm. So is a half asleep public. But in this age of information and video, we have a chance to wake up. Let's not fail to speak the truth about 9-11. It may be our last chance to stop black ops tyranny.

Summary: An Intellectual Delirium Tremens
Review: Mr. Hufschmid seems to be working from the supposition that 747's colliding with 110 story skyscrapers were a regular occurence. We learn that no steel building has ever collapsed from fire; no steel building, however, has ever been hit by a Boeing 747 traveling at 600 knots carrying 10,000 gallons of jet fuel. Mr Hufschmid offers, by way of example, the fire that occured in the Hotel Meridien--as if the Hotel Meridien and Twin Towers were structurally equivalent.
As for Mr. Hufschmid's explanation for how the towers collapsed (for anyone who hasn't read Mr. Hufschmid's analytical tour de force, this is after the jets have been guided by remote control from a command center in--why else would it have been destroyed?--Building 7), well, we have safely made it to X-Files territory. Apparently explosives were placed at the right points throughought both towers to make them collapse downwards, rather than to the side--so that's who those strange men were in jumpsuits crawling around the elevator shafts!
In any event, how skyscrapers that tall could fall sideways is beyond me...Oh, and I've forgotten, did Mr. Hufschmid address the fact that the steel trusses supporting the floors of the Twin Towers were sheathed in fire retardant insulation? It seems to me that if, as Mr Hufschmid suggests, there were no risk of the steel melting, there would be no need for the fire retardant insulation in the first place...I could go on and on...but what's the point? Supporters of Mr Hufschmid would say it's because I can't refute the arguments. Big whoop. The scary thing is that people will actually fall for Mr. Hufschmid's book. They will also say that because I think it's crap, I must be either a CIA or Mossad plant. What open minds!
P.S.
Loved the discursives on the "Summer of Sam"(Berkowitz )and the Kennedy assassination. I found them so...relevant.

Summary: EASY TO UNDERSTAND ANALYSIS OF THE ATTACKS
Review: This book is probably the most readable in terms of understanding the technical aspects of the WTC collapse and Pentagon crash.
Humschmid illustrates that the collapse of three steel structures due to fire is either the biggest coincidence in structural engineering history or the attack was a scam. what most disturbing is the degree to which the government has gone to cover this up. The fact that most Americans seem oblivious to this sham. The two biggest giveaways are the pentagon crash and the WTC 7 collapse. You'll have to read the book to find out why.
Despite what the negative reviews say, The laws of physics don't change because the government says so. it's amazing the degree to which some people will go to to ignore facts. But I digress. Bottom line, I found this book contained the most readable explanation of the collapse of the twin towers and building seven.
don't be swayed by those who label books like these x-files stuff. The fact that the naysayers have to resort to labeling and name calling is proof positive they have absolutely no case.
