So for those of you not familiar with the variant rule of "Armor as Damage Reduction" the link is here: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/armorAsDamageReduction.htm

On to my question.

It says that for armors not covered on the table(assuming to allow for the introduction of armor in other books) to take the armor bonus, half it, and subtract the half from the whole. Would it work for the Warforged's Composite/Mithral/Adamantine plating? And would that mean that an Addy Plated Warforged would have +4 AC, DR 4/- 2/Addy? Or would it be more beneficial using this variant to be Unarmored and take an Adamantine Full Plate (+4 AC, DR 7/-)?
