Great rhombitrihexagonal tiling

Great rhombitrihexagonal tiling

In geometry, the Great rhombitrihexagonal tiling (or "Omnitruncated trihexagonal tiling") is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are one square, one hexagon, and one dodecagon (12-sides) on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of "t0,1,2{3,6}".

Conway calls it a truncated hexadeltille, constructed as a truncation operation applied to a trihexagonal tiling (hexadeltille).

There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane.

This tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of omnitruncated polyhedra with vertex figure (4.6.2p) and Coxeter-Dynkin diagram s.

There is only one uniform colorings of a Great rhombitrihexagonal tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex: 123.)
