Truncated tetrahedral prism

Truncated tetrahedral prism

In geometry, a truncated tetrahedral prism is a convex uniform polychoron (four dimensional polytope). This polychoron has 10 polyhedral cells: 2 truncated tetrahedra connected by 4 triangular prisms and 4 hexagonal prisms. It has 24 faces: 8 triangular, 18 square, and 8 hexagons. It has 48 edges and 24 vertices.

Alternative names:
# Truncated-tetrahedral dyadic prism (Norman W. Johnson)
# Tuttip (Jonathan Bowers: for truncated-tetrahedral prism)
# Truncated tetrahedral hyperprism

It is one of 18 uniform polyhedral prisms created by using uniform prisms to connect pairs of parallel Platonic solids and Archimedean solids.
