eutectic temperature! Which is a “ is a homogeneous mixture of substances that melts or solidifies at a single temperature that is lower than the melting point of either of the constituents.”
That “ approached 1,000 °C” which is not the melting point of structural steel, but the eutectic mixture.
You are taking a FEMA document that states the steel was attacked by corrosion and created a strange eutectic mixture that melted below 1000C. Nowhere did it state unmolested steel free of chemical attack melted because structural steel reached its melting point of 1,130 °C (2,070 °F).
Is it a fact, one way of identifying substances is by melting point. The melting point of structural steel is 1,130 °C (2,070 °F) . That is scientific fact. If a substance melted before 1000C, then it did not have the composition of structural steel. It was something more like iron sulfate that has a lower melting point than structural steel.

you're wrong.
You telling me a A36 steel melted in just a 1000c hot environment?
You explain this madness since we know this to be true?
The mixture is liquid!! It contains Iron.
Evidence of a severe high temperature corrosion attack on the steel, including oxidation and sulfidation with subsequent intergranular melting, was readily visible in the near-surface microstructure. A liquid eutectic mixture containing primarily iron, oxygen, and sulfur formed during this hot corrosion attack on the steel. This sulfur-rich liquid penetrated preferentially down grain boundaries of the steel, severely weakening the beam and making it susceptible to erosion. The eutectic temperature for this mixture strongly suggests that the temperatures in this region of the steel beam approached 1,000 °C (1,800 °F), which is substantially lower than would be expected for melting this steel.
When steel cools below the eutectic temperature, the liquid of eutectic composition transforms to two phases, iron oxide, FeO, and iron sulfide, FeS. The product of this eutectic reaction is a characteristic geometrical arrangement that is unique and is readily visible even in the unetched microstructure of the steel. Figures C-4 and C-5 present typical near-surface regions showing the microstructural changes that occur due to this corrosion attack.

A eutectic system (/juːˈtɛktɪk/ yoo-TEK-tik)[1] from the Greek "εύ" (eu = well) and "τήξις" (tēxis = melting) is a homogeneous mixture of substances that melts or solidifies at a single temperature that is lower than the melting point of either of the constituents.[2]
The eutectic temperature is the lowest possible melting temperature over all of the mixing ratios for the involved component species.

The lowest temperature at which a plain carbon steel can begin to melt, its solidus, is 1,130 °C (2,070 °F). Steel never turns into a liquid below this temperature. Pure Iron ('Steel' with 0% Carbon) starts to melt at 1,492 °C (2,718 °F), and is completely liquid upon reaching 1,539 °C (2,802 °F). Steel with 2.1% Carbon by weight begins melting at 1,130 °C (2,070 °F), and is completely molten upon reaching 1,315 °C (2,399 °F). 'Steel' with more than 2.1% Carbon is no longer Steel, but is known as Cast iron.[15]

This is the fourth forensic investigator that stated this looks like damage from a high explosive charge. Bummer,,, no pics??

Someone please remind me.
What plane crash film was actually shown on television that day while the towers were still standing?
Was it ONLY the Fox helicopter video, the one shown from slightly above, where the plane comes into the tower from the right?

Dale Pierce I'm a volunteer gathering evidence that is being presented to a federal grand jury in NYC. With support from the fire commissioners from the Franklin Square & Munson Fire Department. This is steel from the WTC towers. You can see a presser jet impact on the lower lip with about a 3" jet forming a ring wave around it. justicefor911heroes.org...
This is on the inside of the box in a column that is 4" thick showing a high velocity impact into preheated malleable steel.
More impacts showing steel at malleable Temperatures.

Not penetration by an object. Do you understand?

the only footage of the impact shown live was when the second plane hit the South tower and this was caught by the majority of live coverage networks.
