The paper presents calculations result of an assembled reinforced concrete hollow core slab of off-shuttering formation which has been reinforced with pre-stressed wire in its top and bottom areas reinforced with carbon fiber, in their turn. The research also examines the existing practice of using carbon fiber as reinforcement elements of reinforced concrete structures, existing specification documents regulating carbon fiber application of carbon in the Russian Federation as well as specification documents containing information about carbon fiber strength and stress-strain properties. The article contains the information on the scheme of loading, conditions of the slab fastening, geometrical characteristics of floor slab panels, physical characteristics of concrete and reinforcement of the experimental sample; technical characteristics of carbon reinforcement elements. The research results are represented as graphs of variance of construction deflections under loading in operating conditions of a slab wIth and without cracks before its reinforcement, and also in the moment of reinforcement. The research shows that using of carbon fiber to reinforce flexural elements with preliminary stress allows to increase rigidity and crack resistance of reinforced concrete elements.
