Structural engineer Ron Brookman probes the NIST analyses of World Trade Center
Seven (WTC 7). This article titled The
NIST Analyses: A Close Look at WTC 7 is
available free as a download, or can be purchased as a spiral-bound hardcopy in
the AE911Truth online
store. Brookman‘s careful examination of the NIST final reports regarding
WTC 7 reveals an abundance of deficiencies and discrepancies. These come in many
varieties. Some are erroneous, in that they conflict with scientific findings
reported in the open literature. Others are inconsistencies internal to the NIST
reports. And finally, others are incomplete with respect to failure to
investigate matters that had been flagged as needing further investigation in
official reports from other government agencies.
Once the final edits were complete, Brookman offered the following comment to
accompany the article’s announcement.:
“We still have the law on our side. The
National Construction Safety Team Act requires NIST to establish the likely
technical cause of the building failure. It also requires a public report
including the analysis demonstrating the likely cause of failure. Upon reading
the final NCSTAR reports issued in November 2008 regarding WTC 7, I could not
find a complete analysis that proved the NIST hypothesis was correct. Instead I
found numerous inconsistencies and unfinished business. Read the article if you
are curious, and keep the NCSTAR reports handy for reference.”
Brookman is one of
24 structural engineers who have signed the AE911Truth petition calling for a
truly independent investigation of the events of 9/11, with emphasis on the
destruction of the WTC Towers and WTC building 7. He is also one of the
interviewees in the article, 29
Structural & Civil Engineers Cite Evidence for Controlled Explosive Demolition
in Collapses of All 3 WTC High–Rises on 9/11. For a broader book–length
exposé on WTC 7 see also David Ray Griffin’s The
Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center7 — Why the Final Official Report about
9/11 is Unscientific and False.
Brookman received his M.S. in Structural Engineering (1986) from the University
of California at Davis, following a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the same
school in 1984. He has over 23 years experience in structural analysis, design,
evaluation and rehabilitation of buildings in northern California.
