Concrete arc beams in the support mold is often difficult to ensure the molding accuracy, the production is more difficult to high cost, and 3D printing technology has a construction speed, design freedom and high characteristics, so in order to solve the problems such as the complexity of concrete arc beam support, the effectiveness of 3D printing arc shell-cast-in-place beam construction was studied. According to the existing 3D printing concrete ratio and process parameters, three 3D printing curved beam mold shells were designed and printed, and the printing and molding accuracy was measured. The mold shells were equipped with reinforcing cages and cast-in-place concrete materials, and 3D printing concrete curved mold shells-cast-in-place beams were produced. The beam specimens were subjected to vertical loading tests to validate the effectiveness of the construction method. The results show that the 3D printed curved mold shell is basically the same size as the 3D model, with a maximum error of 4% in the middle, and the overall printing and molding quality is good. Under vertical loading, the damage patterns of the three 3D printed curved mold shell-cast-in-place beam specimens are similar. The cracking load and ultimate capacity of the beam specimen with reinforcement between the curved mold shell and the cast-in-place beam have been significantly improved, with an increase in the ultimate load of about 25%.
