The problem of reinforcing rein-forced concrete structures remains one of the key ones in modern construction, especially in view of the increase in operational loads, physical wear, as well as the consequences of natural disasters and military actions. Prestressed ropes allow not only to increase the strength of structures, but also to extend their service life, ensuring the economic feasibility of repair or reconstruction.This article presents the main methods for calculating such monolithic reinforced concrete struc-tures using the SCAD Office, LIRA-SAPR, SOFiS-TiK software packages.The main advantage of using prestressed ropes is their ability to evenly distribute the load in the struc-ture, reducing the risk of cracks and reducing defor-mations. Improving calculation methods, through the use of software packages, allows you to opti-mize these processes, ensuring the accuracy and ef-ficiency of engineering solutions.In Ukraine, there is an increasing implementation of modern and effective construction methods, which is demonstrated by the growing popularity of technologies such as the use of prestressed reinforcement in monolithic reinforced concrete struc-tures. This contributes to improving the quality, durability and reliability of buildings, as well as optimizing the consumption of materials and resources. This approach forms new standards in construction and ensures competitiveness in the international market.The main goal of the article is to promote the dis-semination, research and implementation of monolithic construction technologies using prestressed cable reinforcement. An important aspect is the creation of a modern regulatory framework that will al-low for the effective design and construction of such structures. This will help to increase the level of re-liability, durability and safety of construction sites, and will also contribute to the development of inno-vative solutions in the construction sector of Ukraine.
