Ive seen a few youtube videos where experts talk about this, they say it would lose about 30-40% of the normal strength. Even thoug the steel would lose its strenght to this point, it doesnt matter, it should still hold up.
Let's just say that there was no fire. No fire at all. The planes smashed into the buildings at full force, at speed. It took out several floors of support on one side, as well as the middle. No one is sure what other damage the impacts had. This in itself is more than enough to take the buildings down.

Don't give me that "screen mesh" argument, comparing the world trade structure to my screen door. Yes, I can poke a hole in my screen door and it will not fall on itself. This is because the screen itself isn't supported by the screen above it; The entire screen is being held at the top by the top of the screen door.

If you take away 25% of any buildings support, there is a damn good chance it's gonna fall. Now factor in that this was a few thousand feet up in the air and the building is in constant movement (Have you ever been up in the WTC?).

Seems to me the building fell... just like any other building when it falls in on itself.

Yes, the towers had a steel core in the middle. But don't make it sound like this was solid steel thirty feet thick. Inside of this "steel core" was a large number of elevators - multiple large tall empty cores.

In fact, the moment the airplanes hit huge fireballs were sent down these elevator shafts and into the main lobbies.

I'm gonna answer this section in two parts.

A) I have two college degrees, one from a very large university in California.

B) Since your so damn fucking smart, pehaps you should learn proper English. Your above statement should read "advanced" (not "advance") and it's "10 dollars" or "$10" (not "10 dollar").

While I'm correcting your damn grammer, perhaps you can explain to me how "thoug" is a proper English word.
