In the framework of the LIAISON EU PROJECT, we took a significant step forward in smart infrastructure development. At the ACCIONA Construction Technology Center in Madrid, together with École nationale des ponts et chaussées and TECNALIA Research & Innovation our team implemented an FBG-based monitoring system directly embedded within a reinforced concrete beam. Before casting, sensors were strategically positioned inside the mould to enable performance monitoring throughout the beam’s entire lifecycle at the project's demo site in Poland. The successful survival of the sensors during concrete pouring confirms the system’s robustness and opens the way for real-time, long-term structural health monitoring. This activity is part of the broader effort to design an optimized smart beam - a prefabricated structural element developed with robotic technologies, complex formworks, and integrated sensors. The aim: to reduce material use and environmental impact while improving quality control. Pioneering solutions like this one demonstrate how digitalization and advanced engineering can redefine how we design, build, and manage infrastructure. #GrowWithRINA

Recently, 16 people from our US team braved the icy waters of Lake Michigan for the 24th Annual Chicago Polar Plunge at North Avenue Beach. Teaming up with Peoples Gas, we raised over $10,000 for Special Olympics Illinois, an organization dedicated to providing year-round sports training and competitions for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Here’s to our team’s unwavering commitment to supporting a good cause, connecting with each other and demonstrating incredible spirit and determination! #GrowWithRINA
Our marine surveyors play a key role in ensuring the safety and security of ferries. Aboard these vessels, they conduct detailed inspections of everything from onboard systems to hull integrity, ensuring compliance with safety standards and regulations. With thousands of passengers relying on ferries every day, the work of surveyors is essential in preventing risks and ensuring smooth, secure operations. Their expertise helps keep the maritime industry running safely, allowing ferry operators to focus on providing a seamless travel experience. #GrowWithRINA
Congratulations to the Oarsome Army Educators, who have passed the finish line and completed the "World’s Toughest Row" - about 3,000 miles from La Gomera to Antigua - in 44 days, 6 hours and 38 minutes! They not only took on the physical and mental challenges of one of the toughest rowing races in the world, but also raised awareness for the incredible work of the Adjutant General’s Corps Educational and Training Services Branch and supported the Army Benevolent Fund. As Gold Sponsor for the Oarsome Army Educators team during this remarkable feat of endurance, we are proud of their dedication to learning, determination, and teamwork which resonate deeply with our values. #GrowWithRINA [photo credit: World's Toughest Row]
