3D concrete printing (3DCP) has been hailed as the most iconic productivity tool in the third industrial revolution. However, there are numerous research gaps that must be addressed in this rapidly expanding scientific area. Therefore, this study examined how print path affects early-age plastic bearing capacity and mechanical behavior of printed concrete. A novel experimental approach was proposed to measure the early-age plastic bearing capacity of printed concrete. To begin, a small body was printed and a specified load was given to the printed body at a specific moment to imitate the actual printing process. The maximum print height was then determined. This test method approximates printed concrete plastic bearing capability. The constructability of concrete is simple and feasible, and it is closely related to the full-scale printed specimens, which can be used as a measure in practical applications …
