Build upright (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erect

This clue is a double definition.

'build' is the first definition.
(I know that erect is a kind of build)

'upright' is the second definition.
(I know that upright can be written as erect)

(Other definitions for erect that I've seen before include "Rigidly upright" , "Standing vertically" , "Unbowed" , "Upright or vertical" , "Upright; construct" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Irish Independent and The Telegraph.
