A lower support is provided between the side edges of the roof beneath. The lower support is in contact with the roof adjacent to the exterior edge. Upper supports are provided above and in contact with the roof. The upper supports include upper exterior, interior and intermediate supports. The upper exterior support is adjacent to the exterior edge. The upper interior support is adjacent to the interior edge. Central supports extend between the interior and exterior edges of the roof. The lower support is provided below and the upper supports are provided above. The central supports are located above and in contact with the roof. In this manner lower intersections are formed with the upper exterior and lower exterior and central supports. Upper intersections are formed with the upper interior and the central supports. Central intersections are formed with the upper intermediate and central supports.

What is claimed as being new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent of the United States is as follows: 1. A cable tie down system for a structure including a laterally extending roof having interior, exterior and side edges: a lower support between the side edges of the roof beneath and in contact with the roof adjacent to the exterior edge; upper supports above and in contact with the roof including an upper exterior support adjacent to the exterior edge and an upper interior support adjacent to the interior edge and an upper intermediate support; central supports extending between the interior and exterior edges of the roof with the lower support below and the upper supports above, the central supports being located above and in contact with the roof thus forming lower intersections with the upper exterior and lower exterior supports and thus forming upper intersections with the upper interior support and thus forming central intersections with the upper intermediate support; a plurality of connectors including upper long eyes extending through the lower intersections with downwardly extending eyes below and nuts above, the plurality of connectors including upper short eye bolts extending through the lower intersections with downwardly extending eyes below and a nuts; and a plurality of concrete lead heads with upwardly extending eyes located beneath the eyes of the long and short eye bolts with a plurality of cables, each cable including an upper loop and upper clamp connected to an upper eye and a lower loop and lower clamp connected to a lower eye. 2. A cable tie down system for holding down aluminum car ports and screen rooms during high winds to abate damage in a reliable and economical manner comprising, in combination: a structure with a laterally extending roof above and a cement pad below the roof, the roof having a linear interior edge secured to the structure and a free parallel linear exterior edge with parallel linear side edges between the interior and exterior edges, the interior edge being at a higher elevation than the exterior edge whereby the side edges for an angle of less that 30 degrees from the horizontal, the roof being fabricated of a plurality of roofing segments of generally rigid aluminum sheet metal, the roofing segments being formed with upstanding vertical end sections and co-planar main sections between the upstanding end sections, the end sections being at right angles with respect to the main sections thus forming a bight, the end sections being about 3 inches in height and the main sections being about 12 inches in width with a length of several times greater than the width; a lower support fabricated of rigid aluminum tubing with a rectangular cross sectional configuration about 2 inches wide and at least 3 inches high and a length extending between the side edges of the roof, the lower support being located beneath and in contact with the roof adjacent to the exterior edge; a plurality of upper supports fabricated of rigid aluminum tubing with a rectangular cross sectional configuration about 2 inches wide and at least 2 inches high and a length extending between the side edges of the roof, the upper supports being located above and in contact with the roof, the upper supports including an upper exterior support adjacent to the exterior edge of the roof and an upper interior support adjacent to the interior edge of the roof and an upper intermediate support essentially mid-way the upper exterior and interior supports; a plurality of central supports fabricated of rigid aluminum tubing with a rectangular cross sectional configuration about 2 inches wide and about 3 inches high and a length extending between the upper and lower edges of the roof with the upper support above and the lower supports below, the central supports being located above and in contact with the roof adjacent to bights between the main and end sections of the roof panels and spaced apart between about 5 and 15 feet, the central supports thus forming lower intersections with the upper exterior and lower exterior supports, the central supports thus forming upper intersections with the upper interior support, the central supports thus forming central intersections with the upper intermediate support; and a plurality of connectors including upper long eye bolts about 14 inch long and 0.5 inches in diameter extending through the lower intersections with a downwardly extending eye below and a nut above, the plurality of connectors including upper short eye bolts about 8 inch long and 0.5 inched in diameter extending through the lower intersections with a downwardly extending eye below and a nut above, the plurality of connectors including a plurality of concrete lead heads about 3 inches long and 0.5 inches in diameter with an upwardly extending eye located beneath the eyes of the long and short eye bolts, the plurality of connectors including a plurality of cables about 0.25 inches in diameter, each cable including an upper loop and upper clamp connected to an upper eye and a lower loop and lower clamp connected to a lower eye.
