    (1)     For this regulation, and for any incorporated document within the meaning of section 5 (Incorporated documents), if explosives of 2 or more different hazard divisions are stored or carried together, the hazard division of the explosives (the collective hazard division) must be worked out in accordance with this section.

    (2)     The collective hazard division of explosives of 2 different hazard divisions ( primary hazard divisions ) is the hazard division shown in table 16 at the intersection of the row and column corresponding to the primary hazard divisions of each of the explosives.

    (3)     The collective hazard division of explosives of more than 2 different primary hazard divisions is the hazard division (the final collective hazard division ) worked out as follows:

        (a)     step 1—work out the collective hazard division (the initial collective hazard division ) of any 2 of the different primary hazard divisions in accordance with subsection (2);

        (b)     step 2—work out the collective hazard division (the subsequent collective hazard division ) of a 3rd different primary hazard division and the initial collective hazard division, in accordance with subsection (2);

        (c)     further steps (if necessary)—continue working out subsequent collective hazard divisions in the same way as in step 2 until all different primary hazard divisions have been considered;

        (d)     final step—the final collective hazard division is the subsequent collective hazard division worked out when the last different primary hazard division has been considered.
