The article presents a study of composite prestressed beams. The scope of the research is to determine the influence of the shape of the interface cross-section joint on the static work of the beams. The elements were divided into beams with a natural joint surface and broken adhesion in contact. Preliminary tests were done on the beams with a rectangular cross-section and a flat interface surface. The leading research focused on beams with complex cross-sections. It has been proven experimentaly the beam, made of a rib-shaped precast element with broken adhesion, worked as partially composite from the beginning of the test. Before the first vertical crack occurred, the bending stiffness of the elementwith a broke adhesion interfacewas 14.9% lower than that of a fully bonded beam. In both beams, vertical cracks connect with cracks in the interface. Beams load capacity were achieved due to the crushing of the compression zone of the concrete overlay.
