4. Are you trying to establish that fire proofing in steel buildings works as designed?

since significant amounts of insulation was damaged or broken off from the impact, (where most of the heat and fire just happened to be as well), referencing the temperature of the insulated steel is not going to provide any real information. It does provide evidence that the uninsulated steel temperatures very likely were a key factor in the failure.
