At our local kickoff we took a picture of it, and it looked like it was simply a piece of angle stock that was mounted prior to the portcullis; this is important when designing something to go under the portcullis since it's not simply a gap to the floor.

As mentioned by Dan above, the instructions for building the team version of the Portcullis can be found on pages 67- 71 in the document titled "2016TeamVersions-enc" using password @Ahead)Together!FRC^2016, located in this zip file:

The Portcullis, as well as all the other of the Defenses, then lay on top of the Team Defense Platform, which can be built using the instructions on pages 17 - 19 in that same document.
