A18.5. Classification Codes and Compatibility Groups of Explosives. The classification code for an explosive
consists of the class number followed by the compatibility group letter. Compatibility group letters are used to
specify the controls required for transportation and storage and to prevent the additional hazard that might occur if
certain types of explosives are transported or stored together. All explosives entering the Defense Transportation
System must be assigned a final or interim hazard classification according to A3.3.1.2. Compatibility groups and
classification codes for the various types of explosive substances and articles are identified in tables A18.3.
