Newsletter Volume 10, Issue 1 March 2025

 As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the IPA Newsletter, we take a moment to reflect on a decade of innovation, perseverance, and remarkable achievements. What began as a simple idea has evolved into a global platform for sharing academic insights, technological advancements, and human resource development in the field of the Press-in method. A vision has transformed into a lasting legacy.

Over the years, we have navigated challenges, embraced change, and adapted to an ever-evolving landscape. While technology, trends, and readership habits have shifted, our commitment to delivering real-site experiences and meaningful content has remained unwavering.
 
A decade ago, Press-in technology was still gaining recognition as a revolutionary solution—offering a silent, vibration-free, and efficient method for installing foundation piles. Today, it has reshaped the construction and geotechnical world, enabling projects in challenging environments where conventional methods fall short. From urban developments to sensitive infrastructure projects, the Press-in method has proven its value in delivering precision, safety, and sustainability from an engineering perspective.
 
The success of our newsletter would not have been possible without the incredible support of IPA Directors, the Newsletter Editorial Committee, writers, editors, designers, and all those who have worked tirelessly behind the scenes. Your passion and dedication have been the driving force behind this achievement. To our loyal readers, subscribers, and supporters—thank you for your unwavering encouragement and engagement.
 
As we mark this milestone, we also look ahead with excitement. The next decade holds endless possibilities, and we remain committed to sharing the latest applications of the Press-in method, advancing research and development, presenting case studies, and amplifying the voices of experts and emerging contributors.
 
With a growing global focus on sustainability and minimal environmental impact, Press-in piling is poised to play a crucial role in shaping the future of construction. The March issue of the Newsletter is a special 10th-anniversary edition dedicated to the theme of sustainability.
 
To everyone who has contributed to the IPA Newsletter—thank you. Your hard work, vision, and dedication have made this milestone possible. Here’s to a decade of success and to many more years of progress and achievement!
