Introduction. Vibrations of building structures and mechanism parts were analyzed. The need to investigate the oscillation processes and vibration reliability of steel beams prestressed by web drawing was formulated. The subject of study is structural steel. The object of study is bimetallic steel beam prestressed without rods.Materials and methods. The scientific inquiry is based on the basics of structural mechanics of buildings and structures: superposition principle, differential equation of deflection curve of a bar, energy method, and methods of determination of stress-strain state of prestressed steel bars.Results. A comparative analysis of vibration reliability of non-prestressed beams and prestressed structures of equal bearing capacity was performed. Rotations of the beam supporting nodes loaded by prestressing forces and external impacts were determined by integration of differential equation of deflection curve of a split bar. The support moments in rigid supporting nodes of structures were determined on the basis of superposition principle. The developed methods of stressed condition of prestressed bars are the basis for determination of normal stresses in the sections of beams under study. The resultant stresses were obtained by algebraic addition of prestresses and stresses from external loads. Dynamic parameters of bearing capacity of beams were determined on the basis of works by I.M. Rabinovich and V.A. Kiselev. The oscillation circular frequency of conventional and prestressed beams was established, analytical expressions for determination of angular velocity of prestressed bending elements were formulated, and the dynamic deflections and factors of structures were determined. It is found that the circular frequency of prestressed beams hinged in supporting nodes compared to the circular frequency of conventional beams decreases by a factor of 1.4 and by a factor of 5.6 in beams with rigid supports. Angular velocity decreases by a factor of 1.4 (hinge supports) and 6.8 (rigid supports), respectively. The deflections of prestressed beams are reduced by a factor of 1,87: 11,9. There is a significant reduction in the stressed condition of prestressed structures.Conclusions. A hinged traditional beam under external and vibration loads in limit state is in the material yield zone and does not meet the first and second limit state conditions. These structures have the lowest vibration reliability. Prestressed structures are more reliable. With rigid supporting nodes, the moments of prestressing forces coincide with the supporting moments and produce hogging with the vector opposite to the external load deflection vector. In the limit state, total deflections are less than the external load deflections. Stresses in the structure decrease. Since load moments and beam deflections are initial parameters for dealing with dynamic strength tasks, we may state that prestressed beams with rigid supporting nodes have an increased vibration reliability.
