Adding the Cross Member

Now add a new structural member with a rectangular profile across the top of the box.

1. Under Selections:
   1. Select iso in Standard.
   2. Select rectangular tube in Type.
   3. Select 50 x 30 x 2.6 in Size.
   4. Select the sketch entity shown.
      

      Under Settings, the selected edge appears in Path segments.

      Because this segment has a rectangular profile, you need to check the orientation of the structural member.

2. Click Right (Standard Views toolbar), and zoom to the end of the segment.
   The rectangular profile of the segment is oriented vertically, so it extends above and below the existing square segment.

   

3. Under Settings, set Rotation Angle to 90 and press Enter.
   The rectangular profile of the segment changes from vertical to horizontal.

   

4. Click to add the cross member and click to close the PropertyManager.
5. Click Trimetric on the Standard Views toolbar.
   In the FeatureManager design tree, Rectangular tube 50 X 30 X 2.6(1) appears and Cut list is incremented.
