I would like to cover my concrete patio. Is it possible to drill a hole in the concrete to lag a bracket to support the posts. I was thinking of drilling holes about 6" from the edge of the slab and dropping in some adhesive anchors with the brackets. What are your thoughts?

Thanks

I am doing this on a job right now. All you need is a hammer-drill and a really good masonry bit. You can rent the drill from an equipment rental place, but you'll have to purchase the bit. Also, you'll want to use concrete anchors.
