Here are the Top 10 noun-noun collocations that describe different steel materials.
Metal framing.
Noun.
Metal framing usually refers to cold-formed, light gauge studs, channels and other shapes.
Metal framing can be structural if it is engineered.
Example: This is a light-gauge metal framing system for the walls, which comes in panels. Example: Technically the profiles used as guides are U profiles called screeds, and the profiles intended for frame, are C profiles called uprights.

Metal grating.
Noun.
Grating can be structural or non-structural.
Example: Metal grating is a metal product produced by perforating metal sheets or joining bars of metal to form a grid.

Metal panel.
Noun.
Metal panel is a general term describing any flat, thin sheet of metal. It can be any type of metal (stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, etc).
Example: A metal panel building typically has an extensive number of joints. How the joints perform is a factor of the panel design and construction. Their Uses: Zinc, titanium, steel, stainless steel, copper and aluminum.

Metal tubing.
Noun.
Tubing is any shape that's hollow. (open in the middle).
Example: The Metal tube is stronger and most robust, making it better suited for structural applications and high-pressure fluid flow. Common metals used to construct metal tube include stainless steel, copper, steel, brass, and aluminum. Metal tube made of proprietary materials such as Hastelloy (Haynes International, Inc.) is also available.

Steel angle.
Noun.
Steel angles are hot rolled, and are most often structural.
Example: Steel angle is for general structural use. Featuring excellent weldability, A36 hot roll is well suited to machining, drilling, punching, tapping and grinding.

Steel column.
Noun.
Steel columns are hot rolled, vertical steel structural framing members.
Example: It is a structure that supports the building or some sort of construction project, with the steel column being one of the biggest examples. Steel column is one of the many vertical structure elements that can be used to provide essential support to all kinds of buildings.

Steel member.
Noun.
Member is a general term. Steel members are any part of a primary structural system. Beams, columns, girts, joists, etc.
Example: Structural steel is a category of steel used for making construction materials in a variety of shapes.
en: Miembro de acero.
Steel plate.
Noun.
Steel plate is often structural.
Example: Steel plates are often used for structural and construction applications, pressure vessels, marine and offshore equipment, and military applications. The grade, elements and parameters of a steel plate are also important in how it is used.
en: Placa de acero.
Steel sections.
Noun.
Steel section describes the profile or shape of a structural steel member. Engineers use the section properties for their calculations.
Example: The steel sections are suitable for use in a range of sectors and have been used to build tools, vehicles, walkways, bridges, buildings and more.
