<p>The article presents the results of the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams with and without damages of internal reinforcement. One of the main elements of the production of the reinforced concrete industry is beams. The analysis of the experimental tests showed that the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams with damaged tensile main reinforcement decreases according to control undamaged samples due to the reduction of the reinforcement cross-section. However, the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams with tensile main reinforcement Ø20А500C, damaged to the cross-section area equal the rebar Ø16mm is more on 3.7… 24.0% than the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams with undamaged Ø16mm rebar. This is due to the non-uniform material properties of used thermally strengthened reinforcement A500C. When during testing the tensile main reinforcement is damaged by drilling a hole, the most damages occur in the core with lower physical and mechanical characteristics. In contrast, the outer thermally strengthened layer with bigger physical and mechanical characteristics is damaged to a lesser extent. The analysis of the obtained results shows that during design of reinforced concrete beams with damaged, it is necessary to consider using thermally strengthened non-uniform steel A500C as tensile main reinforcement. </p>
