In this structure, each atom is surrounded by eight nearest neighbors located at the corners of the cube. (https://www.corrosionpedia.com/definition/1593/body-centered-cubic-bcc). 2. A Body-Centered Cubic Crystal System is defined as a lattice structure where each lattice point is surrounded by eight nearest-neighbour points, with a lattice point at the body-center position.
