The relative positons of tetrahedral and octahedral holes between close-packed layers may be described using the PTOT

Question:

The relative positons of tetrahedral and octahedral holes between close-packed layers may be described using the PTOT system, where P represents a close-packed layer, and T and O the tetrahedral and octahedral holes, respectively. Use this description and the formation of ‘stuffed’ PTOT arrangements (B.E. Douglas, J. Chem. Educ., 2007, 84, 1846) to describe the structures of 

(a) Li3Bi, 

(b) CdCl2

(c) MoS2

(d) BeAl2O4.
