Recently aired on PBS, the Port Authority of NY & NJ is managing the World Trade Center project. Constructed with a core of concrete, instead of steel and sheet rock, the materials of this super concrete are tested and found to withstand 14,000 psi. And if you need a point of reference, the Hoover Dam can withstand around 7500 psi.
