The great rhombihexahedron, or groh, is a uniform polyhedron. It consists of 12 squares and 6 octagrams. Two squares and two octagrams meet at each vertex. It also has 8 triangular pseudofaces and 6 square pseudofaces.

It is a faceting of the great cubicuboctahedron, using its 6 octagrams along with 12 squares of the quasirhombicuboctahedron.

It can be constructed as a blend of three orthogonal octagrammic prisms, with 6 pairs of coinciding square faces blending out.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

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