This paper presents the results of an investigation of the possibility of the reliable determination of the residual stress–strain state in polymers and composites using a combination of bridge curvature, optical scanning, and finite element methods. A three-factor experiment was conducted to determine the strength of printed PLA plastic products. The effect of the residual stresses on the strength of the printed products was evaluated. By comparing the values of the same strength stresses, a relationship between the nature of the stresses and the strength of the samples was found. A tendency of the negative influence of tensile stresses and the opposite strengthening effect of compressive stresses was obvious, so at the same values of tensile strength, the value of residual stress of 42.9 MPa is lower than that of the fibre compression at the value of 88.9 MPa. The proposed new methods of the residual stress determination allow obtaining a complete picture of the stressed state of the material in the investigated areas of the products. This may be necessary in confirming the calculated models of the residual stress–strain state, clarifying the strength criteria and assessing the quality of the selected technological modes of manufacturing the products.
