Mr. Fall Down Terror posted:just for laffs i went back through the AE9/11T sponsored report and saw that they breifly addressed two other structural engineering reports, created for both sides of a lawsuit around the collapse of WTC 7, both of which also found that fire was essential to the collapse of the structure Oh man those guys really do love their bad faith readings on WTC 7. Modern tall buildings are required to have sprinkler systems and a whole bevy of other stuff installed that compartmentalizes the fire so that it doesn't spread much. Compartmentalization combined with sprinklers are basically the bedrock of modern building protection nowadays because they're very useful in keeping the fire from reaching flashover (which can give you very high temperatures because your whole room is filled with ultrahot smoke). However, if you have no water to your sprinklers, a MASSIVE source of radiation and embers pelting the side of your building, and multiple buildings that just got hit by a plane.......traditional assumptions about fire spread go out the window really loving quickly because your whole building is on fire. For 7 hours straight. On 25% of your floors. Firefighting was largely not fighting fires inside the building because the occupants evacuated when the planes hit, before the building caught fire, which also contributed.
