One thing to keep in mind is the structure is not homogeneous, it is heterogeneous. The structure was based on 2 rings of supports, an inner and an outer. With the north tower, the plane went right inside, smashing through 1 or 2 of the walls of the inner structure, but with the south tower, the plane hit the corner of the inner supports, creating more structural instability than just the 2 holes. Corners give strength to the building, and by weakening this one, it brought the building down faster. |
So you're saying the buildings weren't homos, they were heteros. Yea, you'll have to forgive the quality. Van Gough he is not, but I think the gist gets across.
My point is that the building that would have theoritically less fuel and less centralized heat is the building that fell in only 47 minutes (South Tower), as opposed to the building that got more fuel in a more centralized location which took over 100 minutes (North Tower).
