12358dc4603d tech Hello Joe - >>> He doesn't have to bring a lunch and wait to melt the >>> steel. Just heat it to the point where it loses much of its >>> strength and begins to sag. Then all the weight above it >>> begins to tumble down. >> Heat steel girders over an open flame for the rest of your >> life and it won't melt. A paper clip, maybe. JN> I didn't say, nor has anyone else ever said, that the steel JN> melted. Au contrare' - several people did use the word 'melt'. JN> It warped, it twisted, it sagged, and it lost its textile JN> strength. And it was not able to support the weight above JN> after it reached that point. As I said in another reply - if the center supporting section was being used as an air-exchanger with roof fans etc. it would create a sort of blow-torch effect feeding oxygen to the burning fuel. If so, it would reach much higher temperatures than an open flame. > > , , > o/ Charles_Angelich - DOS Ghost \o , > __o/ > / > www.undercoverdesign.com/dosghost/faf/ < \ __\__ --- * ATP/16bit 2.31 * ...
