Tessellations
The truncated octahedron exists in three different convex uniform honeycombs (space-filling tessellations):
| Bitruncated cubic | Cantitruncated cubic | Truncated alternated cubic |
|---|---|---|
The cell-transitive bitruncated cubic honeycomb can also be seen as the Voronoi tessellation of the body-centered cubic lattice. The truncated octahedron is one of five three-dimensional primary parallelohedra.
