ABSTRACT:
A tension rafter arrangement adapted to apply tension to an awning extending between a wall and an awning support comprises an extensible rafter having one end adapted to be pivoted at a wall. The rafter has a fitting for releasably holding it to the support. The pivoting arrangement enables pivoting of the rafter to a position so that the fitting is adjacent the wall. The fitting can be releasably held to the wall. The rafter has a tensioning arrangement with a mechanical advantage, and a link pivoting the rafter to the wall serves as a support to lift a stored awning. A roller support for the awning can rotate without affecting the tension of the awning.
