The rafters used to install the awning must not be interrupted, e.g. by the use of roof windows,
dormer windows, etc.
In the event that the installation surfaces or fundamental conditions deviate from what is

Design, Calculation and Dimensioning of Wood Structures, or a lower wind resistance class
must be specified for the awning as appropriate for the installation.
