To ensure maintenance operations for an architectural structure using a mast climber without any limitation on the stability of a mast and locations where a mast can be erected. An architectural structure 100 has a side wall 101 to which a number of connector pegs 110 are attached. A required number of connector pegs 110 are positioned so as to allow stable support of a mast 200 of a mast climber once the mast 200 is erected at its intended position. To perform maintenance operations for the architectural structure 100 using the mast climber, the upright mast 200 is connected to the connector pegs 110 via respective joint members 300. A climbing work platform 210 that travels up and down the mast 200 is fixed to the mast 200. A worker performs maintenance operations on the climbing work platform 210.
A high-rise architectural structure comprising:
A panel for forming an outer surface of a side wall of a high-rise architectural structure which is a building, the panel having a connector peg or pegs secured to an outer surface thereof, the panel being used to construct, by installing the panel on an expected position of the architectural structure, the architectural structure comprising the connector peg or pegs for being connected to at least one mast expected to be set along a side wall of the architectural structure, the connector peg(s) being secured to the side wall at position(s) enabling stable support of the at least one mast by the connector peg(s) once the at least one mast is connected to the connector peg(s), the number of the connector peg(s) being sufficient to stably support the at least one mast by the connector peg(s) once the at least one mast is connected to the connector peg(s).
A maintenance method for a high-rise architectural structure comprising a connector peg or pegs for being connected to at least one mast expected to be set along a side wall of the architectural structure, the connector peg(s) being secured to the side wall at position(s) enabling stable support of the at least one mast by the connector peg(s) once the at least one mast is connected to the connector peg(s), the number of the connector peg(s) being sufficient to stably support the at least one mast by the connector peg(s) once the at least one mast is connected to the connector peg(s), the method comprising the steps of:
