Under the guidance of the full life cycle design concept, a scheme of moving the existing downspout pipe scheme to the reinforced concrete peripheral column was proposed. The main feature of this scheme is that the downspouts are pre-embedded into the surrounding columns and used for roof drainage during the building's service life. At the end of the building's lifespan, the downspouts were used to remove blast holes. To demonstrate the feasibility of this scheme, first of all, it was verified that the material and diameter of the embedded downspout could simultaneously meet the drainage function and the function of removing the blast hole. Secondly, by drawing on the axial embedded hole blasting technology of reinforced concrete beams and using the new type of blasting equipment, the long bag for loading explosives, the feasibility of using downspouts for blasting demolition was demonstrated from both the charge structure and the blasting operation aspects. Finally, the finite element analysis software ABAQUS was used to analyze the stress distribution and stress-strain laws when two types of cross-sectional peripheral columns were placed in four downspouts with different diameters. The analysis results show that when the hollow rate is small, the embedded pipe has little influence on the specimens. In order to avoid significant impact on the peripheral columns, the hollow rate of the specimens should not be greater than 2%. In combination with the requirements of blasting demolition, the hollow ratio should not be less than 0.18% either. Subsequently, it was pointed out that the relay service duration of pipes and concrete holes is sufficient to reach the building's life cycle. Finally, it is clarified that after the downspout is built in, it can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of the building and avoid the safety risk of thieves climbing along the downspout. Therefore, it is feasible to insert reinforced concrete peripheral columns into the downspout pipe.
