Metal tubing
Tubing is any shape that's hollow. (open in the middle)
A hollow structural section (HSS) is a type of metal profile with a hollow cross section. The term is used predominantly in the United States, or other countries which follow US construction or engineering terminology.
HSS members can be circular, square, or rectangular sections, although other shapes such as elliptical are also available. HSS is only composed of structural steel per code.

Steel angle
Steel angles are hot rolled, and are most often structural.
Steel Angles are the most basic type of roll-formed steel. They are formed by bending a single angle in a piece of steel. Angle Steel is 'L' shaped; the most common type of Steel Angles are at a 90 degree angle. The legs of the “L” can be equal or unequal in length.
Example: Steel angle is popularly applied by modern buildings, equipment, factory shops & warehouses and everyday life for its low cost and reliable performances

Steel beam
Steel beams are hot rolled, horizontal steel structural framing members.
A steel beam is a structural steel product that is made to support heavy loads. Steel beams come in different sizes and types, hence their different applications in the construction of structures and buildings. The specifications of a structure determine the geometry, size and shape of beams. These beams can be straight or curved.
Example: initial torque which is a result of the STEEL BEAMs own mass providing a torsional force

Steel framing
Steel framing is a general term. It could be structural or non-structural shapes.
Steel frame is a building technique with a "skeleton frame" of vertical steel columns and horizontal I-beams, constructed in a rectangular grid to support the floors, roof and walls of a building which are all attached to the frame. The development of this technique made the construction of the skyscraper possible.
