We are not looking at the element f heat directly to a galvanized I-Beam, as the galvanized coating over the wrought iron is treated to withstand eat and moisture ALONE, but guess what genius, the planes that hit the towers had three quarters of their wings filled with fuel, leaving PLENTY of room for the fuels fumes to build. And what happens when we have highly compressed, highly flammable fumes rapidly beig released as heat from te engines is filling the air around through impact? AN EXPLOSION. What were the I-Beams NOT optimized for? AN EXPLOSION. The galvanized treatment was blown off the now contorted I-Beams. Because it was wrought iron underneath, it was INFACT hot enough of a burning substance to WEAKEN, not melt, WEAKEN the I-Beams integrity. I'm pretty sure several hundred thousand tons of concrete, computer equipment, rebar, and humans sitting on WEAKENED SUPPORTS would cause it to collapse.
Fucking. Moron.
