Observation

A University of Alaska Fairbanks team published a model concluding fire did not cause WTC 7's observed collapse.

Interpretation

Supports H006's 'not fire alone' half more than it identifies a specific explosive layout. Funding source is a quality factor, not a reason to hide the paper.

Source text

INTERPRETATION (Hulsey, Quan, Xiao, 2020): After computer modelling, the authors conclude NIST's girder-walk-off / Column 79 sequence does not produce the observed near-symmetric descent, and that only near-simultaneous column failure does.

Funding by AE911Truth reduces independence. The work is still an engineering model with identifiable assumptions, unlike anonymous web claims.

NIST did not adopt the result.
