Never got past the first physics class huh? Your teachers neglected higher-order terms to save your brain from overheating.

I guess you should have continued to read the thread.
Or understand that chunks of concrete and steel are immune to atmospheric conditions.
Go back to jerking off to Zelensky, fruitcake.
And your state overlords

If you hook the vacuum pump tube to the pump discharge, you can make the "feathers and rocks fall at the same rate" tube blow up like a glass frag grenade.

So steel has to melt to fail? Dumbass

I don’t know how any of this works. But in my ignorant mind, a controlled demolition pops support points evenly and at the same time to make a building fall straight down.
A fire would soften steel beams which would make the building twist and fall unevenly, unless all those steel beams were softened uniformly. Which seems unlikely in a fire.
But of course the two big towers fell down pretty straight so what do I know

How is it that architects don’t know anything about engineering? How can they design a building without any knowledge on how that building might actually be constructed? Like they’d need to know if their design is even possible, right?

That is my point, concrete and steel are not "immune" to aerodynamics and friction, this is a simple fact. You can posit they are higher order terms which renders them negligible but you can't keep arguing air has no effect on them because they are immune because it is false outside of some very unusual conditions which were not present. Precision can make or break rhetoric.

That’s up to the structural engineer. You can draw anything you want on paper, constructibility is a totally different animal.
ETA BR downtown library is an example of engineering missing on the steel loads.

I love how people immediately attack anyone who questions the events that happened in 9/11 and led up to it. Our government lies about so much.

This has been gone over infinitum ad nauseum, once the floor stack up weight from the failed section was greater than the joist carrying capability load they straight dominoed.

Yeah, and the architect who built it said when he saw what was happening it would collapse on itself, just like it did.

They hire structural engineers to provide proper support for the building. Architects then revise accordingly.

Yeah, according to Rosie O'Donnell.
So how the hell are steel beams manufactured? Magic?

Easier conspiracy to believe:
A) Tower 7 was demolished via controlled explosion
B) The NFL is rigged and the rigging weighs heavier toward the N.O. Saint than any other team.
C) The planet Earth, roughly 3.5 billions old, has had catastrophic climate change because man invented a internal combustion engine a little over 100 years ago.

Minoru Yamasaki? That's even more amazing considering he died in 1986.
