d. The maximum amount of explosives permitted in any location is specified in the QD tables in Chapter 5 of
TM 9-1300-206.
e. Local limits may be established for amounts no greater than those consistent with safe and efficient
operations.
f. Hazard classes for ammunition and explosives.
(1) Class 1 hazardous materials are subdivided into the following divisions based on their principle
hazard:
(a)
1.1 Mass-detonating (blast).
(b)
1.2 Non-mass detonating, fragment producing.
(c)
1.3 Mass fire.
(d)
1.4 Moderate fire, no blast.
(2) Class 1, Division 1 (blast, mass-detonating items).
(a)
Ammunition items in this division are those of which an instantaneous explosion or detonation
of virtually all of the items can be expected.
(b)
These items produce high blast pressures with possible primary and secondary fragments.
See Figure 6 for example 1.1 items, and Figure 7, page 10 for QD (IBD and PTR).
