    Three-dimensional close packing in solids is referred to as stacking the second square closed packing exactly above the first. In this tight packing, the spheres are horizontally and vertically correctly balanced. Similarly, we can obtain a simple cubic lattice by adding more layers, one above the other. This can be done in two ways. Three-dimensional close packing from two-dimensional square close-packed layers: By putting the second square closed packing exactly above the first, it is possible to form three-dimensional close packing. In this tight packing, the spheres are horizontally and vertically correctly balanced. Similarly, we can obtain a simple cubic lattice by adding more layers, one above the other.Three-dimensional close packing from two-dimensional hexagonal close-packed layers: With the assistance, of two-dimensional hexagonal packed layers, three-dimensional close packing can be obtained.
