The structure described by Ca3Pd is Cementite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. There are two inequivalent Ca sites. In the first Ca site, Ca(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Pd(1) atoms. In the second Ca site, Ca(2) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca(2) and six equivalent Ca(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
