Abstract：
The 3D printing construction technology is the application of Rapid Prototyping in the area of engineering construction. This article introduced the principle, brief history and the method of rapid prototyping on 3D printing technology. The paper analyzed the characteristics of the 3D printing technique. It also discussed the development situation and effectiveness of the 3D printing construction technology. The author revealed that difficult problems must be solved about architectural design, construction equipment proposed, building materials and construction standards in the developing course of the 3D printing construction technology. The writer puts forward that the industrial policy made to support the development of the 3D printing construction technology.
