contents The advancement of concrete 3D printing (C3DP) technology has revolutionized the construction industry, offering unique opportunities for innovation and efficiency. At the heart of this process lies a comprehensive digital chain that integrates various stages, from initial design to post-processing. This article provides an overview of this digital chain, explaining each crucial step. The chain begins with design, utilizing Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) concept and parametric modeling to create optimized structures. Path generation follows, determining the precise toolpath for extruding concrete layers. Simulations, both numerical and analytical, ensure the design's integrity and feasibility. Several articles have addressed parametric modeling, process and numerical simulation, and the post-processing phase. However, none has proposed an updated methodology for the workflow. This study aims to propose a robust digital chain for C3DP technology, using one platform (3Dexperience) and seamless data transfer between applications. These steps provide insights into the structural performance of printed components, enabling necessary adjustments and optimizations. In essence, the digital chain coordinates a seamless workflow that transforms digital designs into concrete structures, unlocking the full potential of C3DP and paving the way for innovative and efficient construction.
