They made the center crossbar so that it extended from end to end at the middle of the frames. The center crossbar of each wall — the one that runs the full length from end to end — is the structural spine. The full-length center crossbar provides the primary structural continuity of each wall. The spine that runs all the way through is the structural metaphor for the covenant principle that runs through the entire tabernacle: the presence of God is the continuous thread that unifies every element of the sanctuary.
