List of explosive damage versus various materials as of Patch 257:

Weapon/Structure	Thatch	Wood	Stone	Metal	Tek
C4 Charge	*	11813	*	3544	788
Grenade	788	788	1838	237	53
Improvised Explosive Device (pair)	*	7875	**	**	**
Rocket Propelled Grenade	*	7350	*	2205	596
Tek Rifle	1260	536	294	29	185
Tek Grenade	2625	1115	612	59	385
Cannon	*	*	3446	355	40

^* The damage is greater than the health-points of structures of that material
^** IEDs are currently just about impossible to place on stone, metal, or Tek structures.

Notes

• Cheaper than  C4 Charge because it does not require Electronics, Hide, Fiber and uses 35 less Gunpowder, 15 less Crystals. However Rockets require 7 more Metal Ingots compared to C4 and takes 15 more Cementing Paste.
• According to the Steam Forums, Rockets are more designed to be used against buildings than dinos. It can apparently be useful in caves against a flock of smaller dinos or can be used to enrage a giganotosaurus into dismounting its rider, but many users complain of unpredictable results when used against anything other than player-constructed objects.
