Forensic engineer/university prof to run an open evaluation of the NIST WTC 7 collapse model [View all]
World Trade Center Building 7 Evaluation is an engineering study at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) using finite element modeling to evaluate the possible causes of World Trade Center Building 7’s collapse. The study is being conducted by Dr. J. Leroy Hulsey, Chair of UAF's Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, and two Ph.D. research assistants. Professionals from the fields of structural engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, architecture, building design and construction, physics, math, and science, as well as everyday citizens, are invited to get involved. Every aspect of the scientific process will be posted on http://WTC7Evaluation.org. The study is being crowd-funded by the nonprofit organization Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

About Dr. Hulsey
Dr. Hulsey is a professor at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) and the Chair of UAF’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He brings decades of experience in failure analysis and modeling of structures.
In May, he and his team of Ph.D. research assistants began a two-year process of modeling WTC 7. Using the sophisticated computer models they are developing, Dr. Hulsey and his team will evaluate the probability of various hypothetical causes of WTC 7’s collapse.
AE911Truth, backed by our 2,390 architects and engineers, is funding Dr. Hulsey’s research because it is imperative to our mission that WTC 7 finally be modeled in a transparent and unbiased process — and that the findings be disseminated to every corner of the engineering community. Already we’re seeing tremendous interest in the study, as several local engineering groups have invited Dr. Hulsey to speak about his work.
When awareness of the study spreads throughout the entire engineering field and Dr. Hulsey begins to publish his findings, it will be a turning point in how the destruction of WTC 7 is viewed — both within the engineering world and beyond.
