A truss for securing an awning support strut or the like to a recreational vehicle having a chassis frame and an awning. The bracket has an inner bearing plate for mounting the bracket on the chassis frame of the vehicle and an outer bearing plate for mounting the awning strut thereupon. The outer bearing plate is maintained in a spaced relationship with the inner bearing plate by a top and an inclined bottom arm connected thereto and extending therebetween. Spaced vertical members connected between the top and bottom arms support the arms and distribute static and dynamic loads imposed by the awning, and diagonal members support the arms and the vertical members in a fixed spacial relationship with each other. A bracing member connected to the bottom arm, proximate the outer bearing plate, and to the outermost diagonal member provides additional support to the outer bearing plate.
