round HSS or pipe sections?
(OP)
When you use round steel sections, do you specify pipe sections or round HSS? I'm designing replacement columns for an existing house. Should I call the local fabricator and see what they commonly have more of?

Pipe is not.
If a pipe column folds, you haven't a leg to stand on.
