The disrhomboctahedron, dro, or compound of eight triangular prisms is a uniform polyhedron compound. It consists of 24 squares and 16 triangles (all of which pair up due to lying in the same plane), with one triangle and two squares joining at a vertex.

It is the result of combining the two chiral forms of the rhomboctahedron.

Its quotient prismatic equivalent is the triangular prismatic octaexoorthowedge, which is ten-dimensional.
