These are all quite long so I'll just post the Conclusion section for each and the link.
Point TT-6: The Claim That There Was No Molten Steel Or Iron in the WTC Buildings
None of the official claims about the non-existence of molten iron or steel in the destroyed WTC buildings withstand scrutiny. The fact that the rubble contained steel or iron that had been melted shows that the buildings were destroyed by something other than fire and airplane impact. Especially dramatic evidence of various types was provided by several facts: that the original RJ Lee report showed that there was almost 1,500 times more iron in the dust than normal; that the rubble contained steel with gaping holes, manifesting a “Swiss cheese appearance” that shocked the three “fire-wise professors” from Worcester Polytechnic Institute; that lead had been vaporized; that molybdenum and been melted; and that the metal pools contained iron that had been heated, as shown by the orange color, above 2,000°C (3,632°F).
When all of this physical evidence is combined with the testimony about explosions from many types of professionals, the claim that the Twin Towers were brought down by nothing other than the airplane impacts and resulting fires is simply not credible.

Point TT-7: Why Did the Twin Towers Collapse? The Seismic Evidence
The discrepancies described above indicate that the LDEO conclusions about the nature of the events that generated the signals recorded at Palisades cannot be correct. Most strikingly, the ground radar data, which is very precise, showed WTC 1 to have been struck 15 seconds later than the Palisades-recorded seismic activity, which LDEO scientists attributed to an airplane impact. The radar also shows WTC 2 to have been struck later than the seismic activity attributed to it. The seismic activity, therefore, must have been produced by something other than the crashes of the airliners into the two buildings.
Rousseau, like Furlong and Ross, provided reasons to conclude that the signals that the official story attributed to airplane impacts had actually been caused by something else – which, as evidence documented in Point TT-8 suggests, was shocks, explosive in nature, that had occurred at the bases of the buildings. Rousseau further demonstrated that the wave details themselves were characteristic of such explosions, not of plane impacts or building collapses.

Point TT-8: Why Did the Twin Towers Collapse? The Physical and Testimonial Evidence
Defending its claim that the Twin Towers were brought down solely by the plane impacts and the resulting fires, NIST argued that there was no evidence that they were brought down by controlled demolition and that, in particular, there were no explosions below the floors on which fires burned.
However, there were many reports of explosions below the fire floors, including massive explosions in the basements, and reports of the ground shaking outside.
In addition to this testimonial evidence, the collapses exemplified various features characteristic of controlled demolitions that could not plausibly be explained in any other way.
One more type of physical evidence, provided by seismic graphs, is discussed as mentioned in Point TT-7.
It can safely be concluded, therefore, that the position presented by FEMA, the 9/11 Commission, and NIST
– that there is no evidence of explosions in the Twin Towers before their collapses occurred –
is indefensible.
Point WTC7-4: Did the Official Simulation of the Fall of WTC-7 Match the Observed Collapse?
We can conclude that the computer simulations do not, in fact, correlate to the key features of the building collapse. NIST’s attempt to “decouple” developments in the unseen interior of the building from what happened to its easily observable exterior is, therefore, contrary to evidence. NIST’s position appears to be no more than an attempt to evade legitimate questions.
This conclusion is reinforced by NIST’s refusal to release its computer models, combined with the fact that progressive collapse resulting in freefall could never be replicated experimentally – for the simple reason that a progressive collapse involving freefall is physically impossible.
Point PC-1A: The Todd Beamer Call from UA Flight 93: A Serious Problem in the Timeline
The two conflicting timelines differ by more than 20 minutes. Given the problems with the Beamer call outlined in the preceding Point PC-1, three questions arise:
1. Why was Beamer describing an event that had, according to three official sources, occurred 20 minutes earlier, as if it were unfolding in the present moment?
2. Why do the telephone records presented by the FBI to the Moussaoui trial in 2006 place the Beamer hijacking call at 9:48 AM, although three official sources place the hijacking 20 minutes earlier?
3. Given that airphones are powered by the airplane’s electrical system, how could the Beamer line have remained open for the Moussaoui-Trial reported 45 minutes after the plane had crashed and disintegrated?
Hence, these questions about the beginning of the alleged Beamer call complement the time-related questions about the end of the alleged call raised in PC-1, thereby reinforcing the doubts about the authenticity of the Todd Beamer call to Lisa Jefferson – upon which was founded the entire “Let’s roll” campaign glorifying the heroism of the passengers of UA Flight 93.
