Honeycomb structure aerospace industries, automotive and furniture to packaging and logistics. The material takes its name from its visual resemblance to a bee's honeycomb – a hexagonal sheet structure. The hexagonal comb of the honey bee has been admired and wondered about from ancient times. The first man-made honeycomb, according to Greek mythology, is said to have been manufactured by Daedalus from gold by lost wax casting more than 3000 years ago. Marcus Varro reports that the Greek geometers Euclid and Zenodorus found that the hexagon shape makes most efficient use of space and building materials. The interior ribbing and hidden chambers
Tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb Conway calls this honeycomb a 3-RCO-trille, and its dual quarter cubille. The dual of a "runcic cubic honeycomb" is called a quarter cubille, with Coxeter diagram , with faces in 2 of 4 hyerplanes of the formula_3, [4,3] symmetry fundamental domain. Cells can be seen as 1/4 of dissected cube, using 4 vertices and the center. Four cells exist around 6 edges, and 3 cells around 3 edges. It is related to the runcinated cubic honeycomb, with quarter of the cubes alternated into tetrahedra, and half expanded into rhombicuboctahedra. This honeycomb can be divided on truncated square tiling planes, using
