In geometry, the truncated octahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 14 faces (8 regular hexagonal and 6 square), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. Since each of its faces has point symmetry the truncated octahedron is a zonohedron.
If the original truncated octahedron has unit edge length, its dual tetrakis cube has edge lengths and .
