Broke Awning

[looknow12]

Not having a good week

So I have my TT at my house and have been working out of it.

Today I opened the awning early and as it started to rain I didn't think anything of it because it was taught and believed the rain was rolling off it.

After several hours of rain, I heard a crash and the front side collapsed.

I could barely open the door to get out of the trailer. The motor was on the ground, the arm still in place, but the cradle tore a bit, rivet snapped allowing the motor to fall out.

The wire connecting the motor is fine, the plug is some sort of quick disconnect.

I got on a ladder, positioned the motor into the cradle and with another hand worked the Compass app the close the awning. Don't ask.

Below are pictures. My goal is to attempt to plan a repair. While the arm seems fine except for a small aluminum tear, I'm thinking it might be possible to bolt, or re-rivet the motor back in place (if it is a rivet)

Any advice is appreciated.
