An architectural structure is a free-standing or guy anchored manmade outdoor construction for permanent use. Architectural constructures often have closed cabinets, but depending on their use, there is no requirement. Architectural structures are used for residential or office purposes ( building), as support structures ( bridges, electricity pylon, radio mast), as antenna ( mast radiator) or for scientific experiments. For other uses, see Building (disambiguation). ...

Temporary Architectural Structues
Not all architectural structures are built for permanent use. Structures designed for ephemeral events, such as Trade shows, conferences or theatre are often dismantled after use. This allows the structure to be designed without regard for future use, corrosion or other long term considerations. Freed from these constraints, a temporary structure can take fully realise architectural and design ideas. A trade fair (or trade show) is an exhibition organised so that companies in a specific industry can showcase and demonstrate their new products and services. ...

An other category of temporary architectural structures are transportable rides, beer and circus tents, etc.. These structure are designed so, that they can be quickly dismantled and built up.
However it is not incommon that a temporary architectural structure is not dismantled and kept permanently in use. It is also not incommon, that used transportable rides are bought by owners of amusement parks and built up there permanently.
Building versus architectural structure Often the words architectural structure and buildings are confused, because in many languages the same or nearly the same word for them is used. In strict speaking a building is an architectural structure in which all floors are habitable. A floor can be described as habitable, if it has closed walls and is large enough for a person to stay. Tall architectural structures at which no or only some floors are habitable should be considered as towers. As mast a tower structure is described, which is anchored by guy wires. Poles are free-standing towers of very simple type, in most cases of one construction element. they also are made of sometimes decomposing material.
