HSS is sometimes mistakenly referenced as "hollow structural steel". Rectangular and square HSS are also commonly called "tube steel" or "box section". Circular HSS are sometimes mistakenly called "steel pipe", although true steel pipe is actually dimensioned and classed differently from HSS. (HSS dimensions are based on exterior dimensions of the profile; pipes are also manufactured to an exterior tolerance, albeit to a different standard.) The corners of HSS are heavily rounded, having a radius which is approximately twice the wall thickness. The wall thickness is uniform around the section.
