I find only that RDX is used in controlled demolitions. I can't find any link between thermite, or thermate and controlled demolition except on pages discussing 9/11.
This is off topic, a little, but watch how the towers were built.
Building the WTC Interesting 20 minute documentary about the construction of the World Trade Center. Notice how much care and attention was given to it's strength and ability to withstand damage.

The product shown in one of the above posts was designed to cut horizontaly through steel columns. It was developed at the request of the US military to be used for "breaching" operations.
According to the manufacturer, the military hasn't purchased any of yet. Once the fellow I spoke with started undertanding why I was asking about it, he clammed up. I think it is generally accepted that new products designed for the military are given to the military in sufficient quantitites to be tested for their performance in carrying out the particular operation for which they were designed. I was hoping to find out if that was the case, but couldn't.
He did say that when you're dealing with "special forces" they tend to ask for things and then once you give it to them, they decide they don't want it.
So I now also know that this product was requested by "special forces".

Actually, no. He sounded legit. He sounded like a guy a but unhappy that they went through a process of inventing, patenting and manufacturing something at the request of "special forces" and now has to find another market for the product. lol
But, I have little doubt that plenty of these devices were sent to the "special forces" for evaluation.

I'm sure that there are plenty of organizations who would be ready buyers of this most useful product.

In our first conversation on Sunday, I asked him if it was primarily being marketed to building demolition outfits. He said no, building demolitiomn is too small a market for this product.
That made me say hmmmmmm....
I was so trying not to give him my reasons for asking, but he got suspicious, by the questions I was asking. I figure anyone trying to sell to "special forces" isn't going to want to spill the beans about how many and for what, if he knows my purpose is to find out if his product helped take out the WTC. lol
