LuAl3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Lu(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms to form LuAl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Lu(1)Al12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent Al(1)Lu4Al8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Lu(1)Al12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Al(1)Lu4Al8 cuboctahedra. Al(1) is bonded to four equivalent Lu(1) and eight equivalent Al(1) atoms to form AlLu4Al8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Al(1)Lu4Al8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Lu(1)Al12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent Al(1)Lu4Al8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Lu(1)Al12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent Al(1)Lu4Al8 cuboctahedra.
