The report discusses the main specific requirements for the design of sites related to the production and storage of explosives and ammunition. The minimum distances from the sites for explosives and ammunition to neighboring buildings and facilities are considered. Measures to reduce the risk of accidents are presented

The report discusses the basic requirements for ensuring the safety of people, facilities and buildings from the harmful effects of the explosion. It considers the requirements of the necessary distances, ensuring the safety of people, facilities and buildings from the harmful effects of the explosion

The report examines the main dangers that arise in the production and storage of explosives and ammunition. A classification of places where an explosive atmosphere may occur has been made. The obligations of the employer arising from the risks posed by the production of ammunition and pyrotechnic articles are described.

This report presents the different types of explosives. It presents a classification of explosives according to their sensitivity to external influences, as well as a classification of the permissible quantities of explosives, ammunition and pyrotechnic articles that can be safely stored in one room. An analysis was performed and the possibility of safely combined storage of explosives and ammunition was considered. The need of applying specific requirements for the design and exploitation of sites for the production, storage and trade of explosives, ammunition and pyrotechnic articles is described.
