Computer simulations of planar and point defects were performed in the pair interatomic potential approximation. Lattice relaxation was performed firstly for unit planar defects (first stage), and then for a complex of planar and point defects. This revealed the existence of preferred vacancy positions near to planar defects of various orientation.
