In an SU(2) lattice gauge theory with a Z2 orbifolded extra dimension, the new symmetry which is called as a stick symmetry is useful in understanding the bulk transition. We discuss the relation with the Fradkin-Shenker's phase diagram as well. A remnant of the extra dimension is remained as two U(1) gauge symmetries in two 4-dimensional spaces. We also consider more general bulk gauge groups beyond SU(2).
