1. Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Richard Beels <beels@technologist.com>; Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2001 15:29:10 -0400; I read that the WTC buildings were welded rather than riveted. Anybody here have knowledge and/or experience with structural building welding? What differences in the structural integrity of the towe; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00143.html (7,797 bytes)
2. Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Richard Beels <beels@technologist.com>; Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2001 22:49:49 -0400; Thanks. That's my understanding of the failure mode as well. The steel didn't melt but became soft and warped and the concrete expanded and caused extra deforming loads on the softened steel outer wa; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00145.html (9,941 bytes)

Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: "david rann" <drann4@home.com>; Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2016 22:31:08 -0600; I admit that I have not hung any iron in 10 years, and in the 15 years prior had never seen a riveted connection. But might I also add, welded connections are extremely rare in structural steel. The; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00147.html (8,111 bytes)

Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Randall <randallyoung@earthlink.net>; Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2001 23:03:01 -0700; One of the news bites I heard during the disaster was that the original architect had commented that the structure was designed to withstand a direct hit from a commercial aircraft.

5. Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Rush <jdrush@enter.net>; Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 02:34:37 -0400; Not true. Structural steel welding is still widely practiced. See my prior email in this thread for the government overview document. Actually the designers were proud of the strength of the towers t; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00154.html (9,921 bytes)

Porter" <mporter@zianet.com>; Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 00:40:56 -0600; I read a post-mortem of the structure failures a couple of days ago, and the general consensus of the architects and the engineers is that the original design planned for the impact of a 707.

7. Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Richard Beels <beels@technologist.com>; Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 02:52:37 -0400; The structure was designed to withstand the impact from a 707, and it did. The designers have said they designed it to withstand the biggest plane flying but the 747 is much bigger than the 707. Meth; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00156.html (8,546 bytes)

Re: Welding & WTC (score: 1): Author: Eric Murray <ericm@lne.com>; Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 08:42:13 -0700; I think they figured on a "normal" fire, not one resulting from a full cross-country load of fuel.

The ESB can't really be used as a comparison because the bomber weighed something like 25,000 pounds (also used gasoline as a fuel). Modern-; /html/shop-talk/2001-09/msg00169.html (10,002 bytes)
