Completing the Pierce Point

Select the point in the center of the top edge of the profile, as shown.
The profile location changes so that the top edge of the profile is on the sketch segment. Because the sketch is on the bottom face of the part, the top face of the new structural member is flush with the bottom face of the part.
Click .
In the FeatureManager design tree, Sb beam 80 X 6(1) appears and the Cut list is incremented.
Click Trimetric (Standard Views toolbar).
