The great rhombitrioctagonal tiling or grotoct, also called the truncated trioctagonal tiling, is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. 1 square, 1 hexagon and 1 hexadecagon join at each vertex. It can be formed by cantitruncation of either the octagonal tiling or its dual order-8 triangular tiling, or equivalently by truncation of the trioctagonal tiling.
