凸均勻堆砌

在幾何學中，凸均勻堆砌，又稱三維凸均勻蜂巢體（英語：Convex uniform honeycomb），是一種三維正密鋪，由凸均勻多面體組成且能夠填滿歐幾里得空間。

四面體-八面體堆砌是28種三維歐幾里得空間的均勻堆砌之一，由黃色的四面體和紅色的八面體相間構成。

已知存在28種有此性質的堆砌（蜂巢體）：

• 立方體堆砌及其七個變換；
• 四面體-八面體堆砌（英語：tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb）及其四個變換；
• 十種柱體形式的平面半正鑲嵌（若包含立方體堆砌則為11種）；
• 5種由上面的幾何體通過延伸或迴轉變換之幾何體。

它們可以被認為是平面鑲嵌在三維空間的類比。
