The temperature of jet fuel is not high enough to melt steel. While the impact of a plane crash can generate significant heat, the jet fuel itself does not reach the melting point of steel. The collapse of the World Trade Center towers was a complex event involving multiple factors, including structural damage from impact and subsequent fires.

Rationale: Jet fuel, which is primarily kerosene, burns at temperatures up to about 815°C (1500°F). The melting point of steel is around 1370°C to 1530°C (2500°F to 2800°F), depending on the alloy. Therefore, jet fuel alone cannot melt steel beams. However, it can weaken steel through prolonged exposure to high temperatures.

Rationale: Jet fuel burns at a maximum temperature of around 980 to 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit (527 to 815 degrees Celsius), whereas steel melts at a temperature of approximately 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit (1,370 degrees Celsius). Therefore, jet fuel cannot melt steel beams. However, it can weaken steel by reducing its structural integrity, which can lead to collapse under certain conditions.

Rationale: Jet fuel burns at temperatures around 800-1500°F, which is not hot enough to melt structural steel beams. Steel melts at around 2500°F. While jet fuel fires can weaken and bend steel over time, they cannot directly cause steel beams to melt.
