In BCC structures, atoms touch along the body diagonal. There are
two atomic radii from the center atom and one atomic radius from
each of the corner atoms on the body diagonal, so

In FCC structures, atoms touch along the face diagonal of the
cube. There are four atomic radii along this length—two radii
from the face-centered atom and one radius from each corner,
so:

Simple Cubic Structure (SC)
• Rare due to low packing density (only Po – Polonium --
has this structure)
• Close-packed directions are cube edges.

Body Centered Cubic Structure (BCC)
• Atoms touch each other along cube diagonals within a
unit cell.
--Note: All atoms are identical; the center atom is shaded
differently only for ease of viewing.
