Never before has a steel-framed high-rise collapsed from fire. Why then did the 47-story World Trade Center Building 7, which was not struck by an airplane, suffer a total collapse at 5:20 PM on September 11, 2001?

This presentation outlines the findings and conclusions of a four-year study by researchers at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) and provides a comprehensive critique of the official report issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2008.

The objective of the UAF study was threefold: (1) Examine the structural response of WTC 7 to fire loads that may have occurred on September 11, 2001; (2) Rule out scenarios that could not have caused the observed collapse; and (3) Identify types of failures and their locations that may have caused the total collapse to occur as observed. The principal conclusion of the UAF study, contrary to the conclusion of NIST, is that fire did not cause the collapse of WTC 7.
