Hexagonal tiling honeycomb The half-symmetry construction alternate two types of tetrahedra. The truncated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has tetrahedral and truncated hexagonal tiling facets, with a tetrahedral vertex figure. It is similar to the 2D hyperbolic truncated order-3 apeirogonal tiling, t{∞,3} with apeirogonal and triangle faces: The bitruncated hexagonal tiling honeycomb or bitruncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has truncated tetrahedra and hexagonal tiling cells, with a tetrahedral vertex figure. The cantellated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has octahedral and rhombitrihexagonal tiling cells, with a triangular prism vertex figure. The cantitruncated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has truncated tetrahedron and truncated trihexagonal tiling cells, with a
Honeycomb (geometry) The tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb and gyrated tetrahedral-octahedral honeycombs are generated by 3 or 2 positions of slab layer of cells, each alternating tetrahedra and octahedra. An infinite number of unique honeycombs can be created by higher order of patterns of repeating these slab layers. A honeycomb having all cells identical within its symmetries is said to be cell-transitive or isochoric. In the 3-dimensional euclidean space, a cell of such a honeycomb is said to be a "space-filling polyhedron". A necessary condition for a polyhedron to be a space-filling polyhedron is that its Dehn invariant must be zero, ruling out any of
