We have plenty of steel skyscrapers that have burned for a LONG time and have not collapsed. Huge fires. Towering infernos. This is a good thing, not only for the residents but also for the neighbors of said structures.
I simply do not believe that you can build a building with wood supports that is going to withstand the conditions in those photos without collapsing. Wood skyscrapers that burn are going to collapse with considerable collateral damage.
This whole debate is an example of not remembering the past and being doomed to repeat it. Corporate greed to save a few bucks during construction will eventually result in preventable tragedies.
