(NIST = National Institute of Standards and Technology,
FEMA = Federal Emergency Management Agency,
BPAT = Building Performance Assessment Team,
ASCE = American Society of Civil Engineers.)

- Christopher Marrion (Arup Fire, FEMA/ASCE WTC BPAT member, Oct. 2001-May 2002),
- Irwin Cantor (Cantor Seinuk Group, chief structural engineer of original WTC 7),
- Janno Lieber (Senior Vice President of Silverstein Properties' subsidiary firm World Trade Center Properties).
