 Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [category_name] => Architect ) 
 [1] => stdClass Object ( [category_name] => Doors & Windows )

Please try below code.

    <?php

$i = 0;
//$arrays = array_chunk($get_business_cat_details, 3);
foreach ($get_business_cat_details as $key => $cat_name) {

    //echo " <ul style='margin-top: 20px;'><li><a href='#'>".ucwords($cat_name->category_name) ."</a></li>";
    if($i==0) {
        $get_style="style='margin-top: 20px;'";
    } else {
        $get_style="";
    }

    if ($i % 3 == 0) {
        echo "<ul ".$get_style." >";
    }

    echo "<li><a href='#'>" . ucwords($cat_name->category_name) . "</a></li>";

    $i++;
    if ($i % 3 == 0 && $i != 0) {
        echo "</ul>";
    }
}

I think this may be what your looking for. Since your initial tag is in your loop every result would essentially be a complete list. By removing the from the loop you can close the tag and open a new one dynamically in the loop.

    <? php
    $i = 0;
  echo "<ul>";
   foreach($get_business_cat_details as $key => $cat_name) {
     if ($i % 3 == 0) {
       echo "</ul><ul>";
     }
     echo "<li><a href='#'>".ucwords($cat_name - > category_name).
       "</a></li>";
     $i++;

   }
echo "</ul>";
    ?>
