In five-dimensional geometry, a steric 5-cube or (steric 5-demicube or sterihalf 5-cube) is a convex uniform 5-polytope. There are unique 4 steric forms of the 5-cube. Steric 5-cubes have half the vertices of stericated 5-cubes.

Related polytopes

This polytope is based on the 5-demicube, a part of a dimensional family of uniform polytopes called demihypercubes for being alternation of the hypercube family.

There are 23 uniform polytera (uniform 5-polytope) that can be constructed from the D₅ symmetry of the 5-demicube, of which are unique to this family, and 15 are shared within the 5-cube family.
