ABSTRACT:
A roof channel member (12) for securing roof panels (16) in a channel-braced awning structure (10) is described. The roof channel member is formed from a bottom plate (20) which provides for a female securing post (24) and an upper plate (21) with a male arrow tab (27) for mating with the securing post. A plurality of roof channel members secure side-by-side roof panels in a frame formed from a first F-channel cross member or wall bracket (11), an opposed second F-channel cross member (14), and two parallel spaced apart F-channel side member (13) which join the wall bracket and the second F-channel cross member at the ends. Openings (32) at intervals along the length of the bottom plate provide for light bulbs (34) which mounts into light sockets (33) fitted through the openings. Spaced apart channels (28, 29) on opposed sides of the securing post provide for electrical wires (40) to power the light bulbs. The awning structure is supported off the ground by column members (15 a, 15b).
