Creative Speculation
In reply to the discussion: North Tower Exploding... [View all]gyroscope
(1,443 posts)its actually two buildings in one. the main part of the structure is only 5 or 6 stories. the skinny part in front of the main structure is 13 stories, which is the part of the building that collapsed, and even then it was only a partial collapse of the secondary structure. and 13 stories is no high-rise. the other thing is, the 13 stories of the secondary structure is almost the same height as the main structure at 6 stories.
the most significant thing to know is that the main structure of the Delft Technology building, which was not a highrise , remained standing after the fire was put out. whereas the twin towers and building 7, on the other hand, were total collapses of high-rises where nothing remained standing.
to try to compare them reeks of desperation because they are in no way comparable.
