What is awing?

An awning is an additional covering that is attached to the exterior wall of a building. It is typically made up of canvas or any other strong material that can resist harsh weather conditions. Awnings are used to provide shade and protect against sunlight entering through windows and doors. They are also used to keep rainwater from entering the building. Awnings can be fixed or retractable, which means they can be extended or folded up as required. They can come in a variety of colors and designs to match the style of the building. Awnings are popularly found in outdoor patios, decks, and balconies, but can also be used in residential and commercial buildings.
