Hexagonal tiling honeycomb tetrahedron vertex figure. The runcinated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has tetrahedron, rhombitrihexagonal tiling hexagonal prism, triangular prism cells, with a octahedron vertex figure. The runcitruncated hexagonal tiling honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has cuboctahedron, Triangular prism, Dodecagonal prism, and truncated hexagonal tiling cells, with a quad-pyramid vertex figure. The runcicantellated hexagonal tiling honeycomb or runcitruncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{6,3,3}, has truncated tetrahedron, hexagonal prism, hexagonal prism, and rhombitrihexagonal tiling cells, with a quad-pyramid vertex figure.

Honeycomb (geometry) Honeycomb (geometry) In geometry, a honeycomb is a "space filling" or "close packing" of polyhedral or higher-dimensional "cells", so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical "tiling" or "tessellation" in any number of dimensions. Its dimension can be clarified as "n"-honeycomb for a honeycomb of "n"-dimensional space. Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space. There are infinitely many honeycombs, which have
