This article is devoted to the stress-strain state (SSS) study of metal and reinforced fiber-reinforced concrete beam under static and shock loading, depending on the bimodularity of the material, the mass of the beam, and the location of the reinforcing bars in zones under tension and compression. It is known that many materials have different tensile and compression properties, but in most cases, this is not taken into account. The calculations were carried out by using load-bearing metal beams made of silumin and steel and reinforced concrete beams under the action of a concentrated force applied in the middle of the span. The impact load is considered as the plastic action of an absolutely rigid body on the elastic system, taking into account the hypothesis of proportionality of the dynamic and static characteristics of the stress-strain state of the body. The dependences of the maximum dynamic normal stresses on the number of locations of reinforcing bars in zones under tension and compression, the bimodularity of the material, and the reduced mass of the beam are obtained. A numerical study of SSS for metal and concrete beams has shown that bimodularity allows the prediction of beam deflections and normal stresses more accurately.
