In this paper theoretical studies of statically determinated bending reinforced concrete beams of rectangular cross-section on deformation indexes under the eff ect of a short-time uniformly distributed load are viewed. These theoretical studies are based on the main points of the nonlinear deformation model that takes into account the nonlinear work of concrete and fi tments taking into account discrete cracking. The results of calculating the deformation of beams by the method of SP 63.13330.2012 and by authors’ method are proposed as well as the results of a numerical experiment with the identifi cation of the stress-strain state of statically determinated beams in the form of a fi nite element model in the program complex «Lira CAD-2017R3» using a linear and non-linear sett ing of characteristics of concrete and reinforcement. Based on the results of theoretical studies, the calculation results by the methodology of the current standard with a numerical experiment, as well as with the authors’ calculation methodology are compared. All calculations and loading schemes in this technique are given taking into account the possibility of further experimental studies.
