The small cubicuboctahedron, or socco, is a uniform polyhedron. It consists of 8 triangles, 6 squares, and 6 octagons. One triangle, one square, and two octagons meet at each vertex. It also has 12 square pseudofaces.

It is a faceting of the small rhombicuboctahedron, using its 6 squares and 8 triangles, along with 6 new octagons.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

Its vertices are the same as those of its regiment colonel, the rhombicuboctahedron.
