34. Subject: Well, shoot! Good Morning!
Edited on Sat Apr-10-04 01:39 AM by Ameridansk

I only post at this time cuz I live on the other side of the globe. Up early for Saturday morning cartoons, or what?

I guess I just assumed that the great amount of force released when the first floors "pancaked" would also be released as the other 90+ floors (in the case of the North Tower) did the same.

Sorry, but I admit, I'm not an engineer. Can you point me to the pertinent passages that explain why the rest building went all noodley after the first "pancake"?

On edit,
I won't be back for a long while as I have a life to live away from the computer, and I know how generally worthless it is to deal with some folks on this message board. But I know LOADS of people who would be glad to read your reply. This simple problem troubles every person I know who has ever seen the seismic graph, so go get 'em, Tiger!
