Shade Sail anchor to wall

I think there was a thread on this subject a few months ago. It depends on the size and possible wind loads on the shade sail but bigger is better. It would be better to fix to the actual frame rather than the brick veneer. I would use a 12mm eye bolt. For the fascia, look at the builders brackets in Bunnies, attach one to the back of the fascia and the side of the roof frame. Pass the threaded fixing through this hole. If you can use shakeproof washers because cyclical loading may cause it to come loose (same reason Dynabolts may not be so good)

I'm sure there are many different options but you won't regret doing a good job.

As a general rule don't fix any thing that requires the brick wall to restrain it, veneer brick walls are a facade they aren't designed to hold unbraced structures. You have to fix to the timber frame as the shade screen will have a lot of tension on it.

Thanks for the advice. One question though, How do I know where to drill through the bricks to find the frame underneath?

Plucka,
if you have a tile roof you can lift a tile and have a look down the cavity or even pick the studs by looking at the nail holes in the top plate.
