It is constructed from a hexagonal tiling extruded into prisms.
It is one of 28 convex uniform honeycombs.
This honeycomb can be alternated into the gyrated tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb, with pairs of tetrahedra existing in the alternated gaps (instead of a triangular bipyramid).
There are 1 + 3 + 1 = 5 edges meeting at a vertex, 3 Hexagonal Prism cells meeting at an edge, and faces are shared between 2 cells.

It can be seen as parallel planes of square tiling with alternating offsets caused by layers of paired triangular prisms. The prisms in each layer are rotated by a right angle to those in the next layer.
It is one of 28 convex uniform honeycombs.
Pairs of triangular prisms can be combined to create gyrobifastigium cells. The resulting honeycomb is closely related but not equivalent: it has the same vertices and edges, but different two-dimensional faces and three-dimensional cells.

It is created by alternating layers of cubes and triangular prisms, with the prisms alternating in orientation by 90 degrees.
It is related to the elongated triangular prismatic honeycomb which has the triangular prisms with the same orientation.
This is related to a space-filling polyhedron, elongated gyrobifastigium, where cube and two opposite triangular prisms are augmented together as a single polyhedron:
