Yup, the tower should of collapsed in no more than 5-10 minutes with all that weight on top of 10 floors with heat that "half weakens" the steel.
In fact some people go as far as saying it was the very design of the towers that led to the collapse. I would have to agree! Once they demolished the massive steel cores the office space turned to dust. Maybe next time they want to make a 400m tall building they should put in a lot more consideration than just a massive 46 steel column core 1300 feet tall.
After all a steel core that takes up most of the buildings space encased in more steel and concrete is no match for an aluminum plane that can destroy it all in no more than 10 seconds.
(I would also note I fail to see how occupants in the towers would of known what those managing security were up to in regard to the core of the towers)
