In the 3D printed structural system, the connection between the load-bearing column and the wall is the key to ensuring the integrity and safety of the structure. The complex stress state in the wall-column connection area requires that the connection design must not only meet the strength requirements, but also consider ductility, durability and construction feasibility. However, especially when subjected to shear stress and tensile stress, the interface between 3D printed layers itself has potential weak links, and its bonding strength directly affects the overall mechanical properties of the structure.

Loads are transmitted through mechanical connection and by relying on the interaction of the geometric shapes between components. This interlocking structure can increase the contact area and utilize shape constraints to improve the shear resistance of the interface. At the bottom of the wall-column joint, using the shear key principle, raised foot anchoring key teeth 23 are printed on the connection interface of the column foot 22, and then the foot anchoring key teeth 23 are embedded with the post-cast concrete 5. At the top of the wall-column joint, using the high degree of freedom of 3D printing, a geometrically interlocking mortise and tenon structure is directly printed on the wall-column contact surface. In addition, UHPC is filled at the top of the wall and column to further enhance the strength and stiffness of the connection structure. Compared with the traditional 3D printed wall-column connection method, it can not only disassemble the structural components for production, transportation and assembly, but also increase the connection reliability, save costs, realize the industrialization and greening of modern architecture, and form a sustainable building model.
