 Summary:
 The cases that occur in the implementation of the smooth reinforcement steel bars are analyzed. Geometry of the initial cracks on axially tensioned cylindrical rods are taken from calculations basedon the rheological-dynamical analogy (RDA). Plastic zone size is determined by Dugdale model. From the fracture mechanics standpoint, model is reduced to a plane with symmetrically placed edge cracks.
