Honeycomb aligned. Thus, each cell has two vertically oriented walls, with the upper and lower parts of the cells composed of two angled walls. The open end of a cell is typically referred to as the top of the cell, while the opposite end is called the bottom. The cells slope slightly upwards, between 9 and 14°, towards the open ends. Two possible explanations exist as to why honeycomb is composed of hexagons, rather than any other shape. First, the hexagonal tiling creates a partition with equal-sized cells, while minimizing the total perimeter of the cells. Known in geometry as the
Cubic honeycomb cells.<br>Although it is not uniform, constructionally it can be given as Coxeter diagrams or . <HR> The runcic cantitruncated cubic honeycomb or runcic cantitruncated cubic cellulation contains cells: snub cubes, rhombicuboctahedrons, and cubes. In addition the gaps created at the alternated vertices form an irregular cell.<br>Although it is not uniform, constructionally it can be given as Coxeter diagram . <HR> The runcitruncated cubic honeycomb or runcitruncated cubic cellulation is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 3-space. It is composed of rhombicuboctahedra, truncated cubes, octagonal prisms, and cubes in a ratio of 1:1:3:3. Its name is derived from its
