· To add the chemistry to the Bravais lattice an identical Basis must be placed on each lattice point.

· The orientation of the Basis must be the same at each lattice point.

 

· The number of atoms per unit cell is then given by:

 
 
Atoms per cell = (Number of Lattice Points) x (Number of Atoms per Basis)
