The paper analyzes the possibility of obtaining polyhedral shapes formed by combining polyhedral surfaces based on the segment surface of elongated concave pyramids of the second sort (CeP II-10, type A and type B). In previous research, CP II type A and CP II type B were elaborated in detail. In this paper we discuss further potential of these polyhedral surfaces, on the example of combining them with Archimedean solid - Truncated dodecahedron (U26). The faces of this solid consist of 12 decagons and 20 triangles. On the decagonal faces, decagonal polygons of the CeP II segments (CP II-10) can be added, which provides the new polyhedral composite forms that are, furthermore, concave deltahedra. There are considered possibilities of obtaining polyhedral shapes by combining sheet segments CP II-10-A, as well as of CP II-10-B with U26. Finally, a couple of new shape suggestions are given: compound polyhedra, obtained by intersection of paired composite concave polyhedra originated in the described manner. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
