Abstract
3D printing technology is a new technology that realizes building energy conservation and green development, and is the key to solving the high energy consumption and high pollution in the traditional building process. Based on the basic principles and characteristics of 3D printing technology, this article reviews the status quo of 3D printing technology at home and abroad and its research status in the construction field, and analyzes the existing problems that 3D printing technology cannot be effectively applied in the construction industry. Looking forward to the future application prospects of 3D printing technology in the construction industry, it provides a reference for a systematic and comprehensive understanding of construction 3D printing technology.
