Construct perpendicular (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erect

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'construct' is the first definition.
(I know that erect is a more specific form of construct)

'perpendicular' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for erect that I've seen before include "Build, set up" , "Upstanding" , "Build, put up" , "Found" , "Crete (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
