>You're right, but it can weakene it to the point of structural failure.
Structural failure was not due to fire, but was rather due to design flaws.
Remember how they had to repair the Citi building?
Yeah twin towers were progressive collapse caused by structural failure at the impact sites. That's why the South tower fell first (struck in corner). Even though the North Tower was hit first.
The "fire caused the collapse" is indeed false. Engineering firm was given golden parachute to not be held liable.
