How do you erect your awning on a concrete hardstanding as you cannot get pegs through it

I have been on sites where the main hardstanding is concrete but the awning area is granite chips and this has not been a problem.

anybody got any solutions?

A site we use has concrete in places (old WW2 building bases!)

They have seasonal pitches on them where the users have srewed strips of wood to the concrete and put hooks in for the awning.

Otherwise I guess some soort of weights would do (small sandbags?) tricky for a short stay.

Never seen a concrete hardstanding across the whole pitch. Seems a bit daft?

Did stay at one which had tarmac for the caravan and then gravel alongside for the awning and car parking.

I bought pegs from Ebay that will go through tarmac hard standings. I had to ask the chap on the pitch beside me how I was going to peg the awning as there is a no pegging on the grass rule, I was suprised when he said whack them in the tarmac, upon looking around, everyone else had done the same !

Sorry, no use for concrete I guess.

I have this problem for the start of this season will be fine for full awning but we usually put up a porch awning - venturer snow awning till beginning of may anysuggestions for our new seasonal pitch with concrete base ??

thanks
