I know for a fact an Ironworker wont cut a column on an angle rather
than straight through because of the time it would take.Who would want
to spend soo much time in all that heat and asbestos dust,when they
could cut the shortest and quicker path and move on to the next cut,a
junkyard man has better since that that!

Ever fall a tree with a chainsaw?

Same angled cut is used to control the direction of fall, else the worker
cutting a long beam is likely to be endangered having to scramble out of
its' way.

No, people cutting beams with a torch would be just as likely to make
angled cuts as demolition workers, and for the same reasons, to control
the direction of movement. With the demolition expert, he is attempting
to shift the building in a predetermined direction, in the case of the
torch/cutter, he is attempting a fall in a predetermined direction ...
neither adds nor subtracts from existing evidence and proof.

But, like I said, those are first responders on the scene, those beams are
cut at angles, and the cleanup crew hasn't gotten there yet ...

Really? Please present your evidence they are first responders and NOT
firemen who were regularly on the scene after the cleanup operations began.
