Title: Homeland Security; World Trade Center; Steel Fireproofing; Carino
Description: NIST research structural engineer Nicholas Carino describes laboratory tests used to estimate the amount of fireproofing that was dislodged from various structural elements within the WTC buildings when the aircraft were flown into them on Sept. 11. The specimens shown include steel bars and plates that have been coated with the same type and depth of sprayed fire-resistive material as was used in the WTC buildings.
