3D model of a cubitruncated cuboctahedron

In geometry, the cubitruncated cuboctahedron or cuboctatruncated cuboctahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U16. It has 20 faces (8 hexagons, 6 octagons, and 6 octagrams), 72 edges, and 48 vertices,[1] and has a shäfli symbol of tr{4,3/2}

Convex hull

Its convex hull is a nonuniform truncated cuboctahedron.

3D model of a tetradyakis hexahedron

The tetradyakis hexahedron (or great disdyakis dodecahedron) is a nonconvex isohedral polyhedron. It has 48 intersecting scalene triangle faces, 72 edges, and 20 vertices.

Proportions

The triangles have one angle of arccos(34)41.40962210927, one of arccos(16+7122)7.42069464742 and one of arccos(167122)131.16968324331. The dihedral angle equals arccos(57)135.58469140281. Part of each triangle lies within the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.

It is the dual of the uniform cubitruncated cuboctahedron.
