This matters how? What would be importantly different if it had 17 or 14 storeys?
well, if they called just an ordinary building a high rise, maybe they really called explosives 'fire'!

lmao.

Those kinda details?

Yes, we know the aircraft wings never got to the central cores of the Twin Towers due to hitting multiple floors in their stiff axis due to worrying about details. That tells us how many core columns could have been damaged/severed.

It matters because NIST clearly stated (despite your denials) that they were not aware of a building over 15 storey collapsing primarily due to fire. If it didn't matter then why would you have tried to dispute that he said it?
If it didn't matter, then why did Shyam say it ?

I disputed he said that because I thought he didn't say that. I have no idea what that number of floors matters for. 15 is an arbitrary number. When it comes to the effects fires has on buildings, there is no magic that separates buildings higher than 15 floors sharply from buildings lower than 15 floors.

You didn't answer how the height of the building matters in this case.

Is it just a "gotcha" to you?

No. Not all details matter.
Only the details that matter matter.
All the others are a distraction and waste of time.
You need to present reasons for why those details matter that you say matter. You don't. You just say so. Saying so doesn't make it so.
When will you ever learn, Tony?

It's 17 above ground and that still makes no difference. Defining anything as high rise or not high rise is an arbitrary definition which makes no difference at all to anything useful.

If you think it does, what would you do if we decided to redefine "high-rise" as 5+ floors? What difference would that make? None.

NO. It is all about attention to detail, like when Sunder nearly says 17 storeys and corrects the detail to being 15 @ 32s in this video.

And this matters how?

Does it matter there has never been a affirmative case made for controlled demolition?

What's the significance? If it's 14 it will collapse but add 3 floors and it won't.

Clutching at straws but still drowning.

Why would I? How does it matter in the event discussed in this thread?

I would like to establish whether this building was or wasn't a high rise in so far as NIST are aware, with reference to previous building collapses.

This appears to be a perspective fail.

Take this picture attached...

From the top, one can count 11 floors, but the lower floors are obscured. Continue your count with the 4 storey orange foreground building and you reach 15.

This works for just as long as you can pretend perspective does not exist.

How does this matter? Is it OK if the building is taller?

CLEARLY it does matter in terms of NISTs statement, otherwise why would Shyam have specified "over 15 storeys" ?

So a floor lower makes some significant difference?

Umm..."unprecedented" means "never happened before". This was true in 2001, but now it isn't. I don't know if you failed to notice, but that was 16 years ago and since then, no such collapse can be described as "unprecedented".

"unprecedented" in the sense of what Shyam Sunder says applies to buildings that are "over 15 storeys". That is why he stated it. Whether this building falls into this category is not yet established. Certainly most Iranian media produce a result stating 15 storeys when searched in their native language.
This means that Shyam Sunder's statement of WTC7 being unprecedented still stands.

That is only if NIST had shown that WTC 7 came down due to fire. They didn't and that much is proven.

You know, I am really smelling the AE911T panic with this Plasco collapse. First they double down on the dumb by declaring it CD, then they start grasping for straws regarding the height of the buikding.

Face it, Tony. Steel frame buildings can collapse from a fire. I know this bursts your, any many others, bubble. But all that bubble is doing is keeping out reality. Embrace it as a shining light entering your life.

I am smelling a bunch of individuals on this forum jumping to conclusions on the Plasco building collapse because it fits a narrative they want to believe with WTC 7. It has nothing to do with reality.

I think I am going to see what investigatory details emerge on the Plasco collapse and do some analysis on my own before coming to a conclusion.

There are violent and somewhat focused expulsions emanating from the Plasco building right before and during the collapse which do not immediately lends themselves to natural means.

No, Shyam Sunder is the one who thinks that it is significant, hence you can hear him say it in this video here around 32s.

I gave you the email - if you are worried about the significance, ask NIST, they stated it
