Terry Holland, an independent consulting engineer, specializes in the areas of concrete materials, concrete durability, and concrete construction technology. He holds a bachelor’s degree from the U. S. Military Academy at West Point and a master’s and PhD from the University of California, Berkeley. He consults with concrete producers, contractors, and material developers as well as serving as an expert witness.

Before becoming a consultant, he held positions in the concrete industry, primarily working with admixtures for concrete. He was one of the leaders in bringing silica fume to the market, which has allowed for much higher concrete strengths and much more durable concrete.
