GEMINI IMPIANTI (an Italian company for quality concrete products production systems) has been granted from the EU-funded Horizon 2020 program to develop the above Technology with the IMPRESS project. Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation program ever with nearly 80 billion EUR of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020). 

Pressure Activated Tendon (PAT) is an innovative technology to improve buildings resistance to seismic and fire loads and reduce their life cycle cost and environmental impact.

Pressure Activated Tendon (PAT) can overcome the current Prestressing and post-tensioning techniques used to strengthen concrete.
