In reply to LucaC:
I have tried to represent my understanding of it here https://imgur.com/a/F7huC3m
In both images we are taking a side view.
In the first image, the orange line is the wood going along the floor. The black line is the 4x2 stud. The blue square is the scribbled blue wood from the previous image. The purple lines are two right angle brackets and the yellow lines are screws
In the second image, it is the 4x2 stud at the top end, hence the yellow rectangle is the scribbled yellow piece of wood from the previous image.
Is my assumption shown in the first image correct?
How would you join the two pieces of wood in the second image?
