Description / Abstract: Introduction

Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations.

Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence.

Purpose. To determine the door slam durability of door structures, components, and related systems.

Applicability. This procedure applies to all passenger, multi-purpose and commercial vehicles having conventional swing open door systems, and may also apply to single- or dual-acting endgate systems. The fixtures referenced in this procedure work on any door system, which swings approximately parallel to the ground.

Remarks. There are two (2) methods of performing door slam durability testing for those door systems to which this test applies (see 1.2).

This procedure describes actuation using a linear pneumatic cylinder or a rotary pneumatic/electric cylinder mounted to the interior of the test body. See GMW15885 for an accelerated slam durability test utilizing an electrohydraulic/electromagnetic shaker.

The method in this procedure (GMW15094) is used for validation. The accelerated method (GMW15885) is used for the prediction of structural fatigue of the door inner panel.
