AMD ANSI/AMD 100-2013   
Structural Performance Ratings of
Side-Hinged Exterior Door Systems and
Procedures for Component Substitution

The ANSI/AMD 100 is a structural standard for Side-Hinged Exterior Doors (SHEDs). It uses the ASTM E330 test method to obtain a full system design pressure rating. Once rated, the standard defines methods for qualifying door system components for substitution in the rated system, such as door frames, hinges, locking systems, door slabs, doorglass assemblies, sidelights, transoms, mullions, astragals, and thresholds. Slab stiffness testing is outlined in the standard and is used as a means for determining component substitution.
