We wondered about that the first time we booked hardstanding.  So far all the hardstandings we've been on have been stoney rather than solid concrete.  As alipalm says just use rock pegs and a lump hammer and you'll be fine. 

rock pegs for us as we use hard standings all the time,and a lump hammer is required for sure.yes you do bend the odd peg or two.

Most sites I have been on with hardstandings use part of it for parking the car the other part for the caravan and the awning goes on the grass

Hi johnny5, I always wondered about this then in the summer we were booked on a site with concrete hardstandings. I positioned the awning so that the edge was just on the grass. The sides were then going to be a problem until I noticed what others had done. They had used their spare poles( if you have any) and thread them along the bottoms of the awning where the pegs usually went, this held the sides down from flapping. Seemed to work for them. I also used a few bungees to secure edges to the caravan chassis.

Hope this helps, if you get what I mean!
