Welding Steel Tubing to Sheetmetal

I've seen it done before and curious about the correct method behind it. For instance some of these full frame cars will have a 4x2 .120 wall tubing welded the to rocker to accept the sheet metal floor, which all gets welded together. I have a project I'm working on that I would like to incorporate a tube frame into the rockers for additional strength.

Could anyone enlighten me as to the correct method behind this?
