A combination float and bracket assembly for a floating structure that includes a float body made of foam with a plurality of transversely aligned L-shaped brackets that extend upward from the float body's top surface. Each bracket includes a horizontal flange and a vertical flange and the foam body is made of closed-cell foam. During manufacturing, a plurality of bracket cutouts is formed in the top surface of the float body. A brackets is then inserted into each bracket cutout. The bracket's vertical flanges extends upward above the top surface. Connectors are used to attach the vertical flanges to a frame member. In one embodiment, a transversely aligned frame member void area is formed in the float body adjacent to the vertical flange. The void area receives the frame member that extends over the top surface of the float body and attaches to the vertical flange. Also disclosed is a floating structure that includes a frame attached to a plurality of float and bracket assemblies.
