21
Q

HD 1.1

A

Blast

Contains ammunition which presents a mass explosion
hazard, which will produce severe structural damage to
surrounding buildings in the immediate neighbourhood.

The severity of the damage is dependent upon the
quantity of explosives involved and the distance of the
buildings from the explosion site.

Blast and high velocity fragments are the major hazards
although there may be a danger from heavy fragments
propelled from the structure in which the explosion
occurs.

22
Q

HD 1.2 Projection Effects

A

Contains ammunition which has a projection hazard
but not a mass explosion hazard.

The explosion will result in items burning and exploding
a few at a time. Fragments, firebrands and
unexploded items may be projected in considerable
numbers, some of which may explode on impact and
so propagate fire, and/or explosion.

Blast effects will be limited to the immediate vicinity of
the exposed site.

23
Q

HD 1.2 Subdivisions

A

HD 1.2.1
HD 1.2.1 comprises those munitions that contain a
high explosive charge and may also contain a
propelling or pyrotechnic charge. These items will have
an individual NEQ greater than 0.73kg.

HD 1.2.2
HD 1.2.2 comprises those munitions that contain a
high explosive charge and may also contain a
propelling or pyrotechnic charge. These munitions will
have an individual NEQ equal to or less than 0.73kg.

24
Q

HD 1.3.3 Producing a mass fire effect.

A

Consists of the more hazardous items of HD 1.3 and are
more likely to be bulk packed gun propellants which
produce a fireball with intense radiant heat, firebrands
and some fragments.

The firebrands may be only small glowing particles of
packaging materials but sometimes there may be
massive fiery chunks of burning propellant.

Ammunition that gives rise to considerable radiant heat.

25
Q

HD 1.3.4 Not producing a mass fire effect.

A

Consists of the less hazardous items of HD 1.3 that
produce a moderate fire with moderate projections
and firebrands.

26
Q

HD 1.3
Fire and Radiant Heat

A

Contains ammunition which has a fire hazard and either
a minor blast hazard or a minor projection hazard or
both, but not a mass explosion hazard.

Items in this division may explode but do not usually
form dangerous fragments. Firebrands and burning
containers may be projected.

It includes some items which burn with great violence
and intense heat emitting considerable thermal radiation
(mass fire hazard) and others which burn sporadically.

Narrow band indicating tactical effect of chemical
store.
Non permanent markings ie: name of item.
Symbols.
Identification labels, plates and tags.

32
Q

Naming Ammo Conventions

A

BASIC NAME;
Cartridge

MODIFIERS;
76mm

ADDITIONAL MODIFIERS;
Cannister

MODEL NUMBER;
L33A1

33
Q

Package Marking Purpose

A

To ensure quick correct and sufficient
identification of contents:

To provide all necessary details to assist
inspection.

Identify EO that is faulty / suspended.

To facilitate the issue of the correct nature and
type of EO.

To provide sufficient information for storage and
transport.

34
Q

A

Proper shipping name.
Contractors seal. (If required.)
Identification details: (UN) package detail.

35
Q

A

-Mass (kg).
-Volume (m3).
-NEQ (Kg).

36
Q

Top Face

A

Operational Name: Or logistic name if non operational /
abbreviated.

Technical Restrictive Marking: Not to be fired over heads of troops.

Firing Temperature Limitations.

Inspection Markings.

37
Q

Types of ammunition sub batched:

A

Fixed ammunition.
Semi fixed ammunition.
Separate loaded ammunition.
Mortar ammunition.

38
Q

HD 1.4

A

No Significant Hazard

Contains ammunition with only a moderate fire hazard
which will not contribute excessively to the fire.

The effects will be largely confined to the package,
however the external fire may cause the package to be
degraded such that it will not entirely contain the
effects of the ammunition.

No fragments of appreciable size or range are to be
expected. An external fire will not cause a mass
explosion of the total contents of the package,
irrespective of the number of items in the package.

39
Q

HD 1.5

A

Blast

Contains ammunition which although potentially
mass explosive, very insensitive:

Usually when conditions of extreme confinement
plus large quantities are involved.

Ammunition in this division is confined to certain
types of bulk explosives which are so insensitive that
there is very little probability of a transition from
burning to detonation under normal conditions of
storage and transport.

40
Q

Position of Identification package

A

Rectangular and cylindrical metal packages:
Embossed or engraved.

Rectangular wooden packages:
Branded or stamped.

Plastics:
Engraved, embossed, moulded or applied by
some other method.
