Presentation Question

[simms]

I have a one minute presentation to perform. I have a diagram with several components. I will only be talking about two of these components due to time constraints.

Should I label all of them, and risk evaluators saying "Oh, you have this extra data on here you didn't even mention, what is it?"

or not put it on and risk them saying "That's great, but what context is this in? You didn't label some of the parts"

University, 2nd year. Engineering of Insulation in a Home. One overhead, hand drawn.

I only have time for Insulation and the Housewrap. I figure I can skip studs, but don't know how important the sheathing is. I figure they know what bricks are, and drywall should be obvious.

what context?

HS? College? Job?

Job: Labels

HS/College: No labels

End yourself?

I would use labels though. Just briefly mention all of them in an overview, then go in depth.

I think you are being hasty in skipping over sheathing.

Everyone uses sheathing of some sort, not everyone will use housewrap.

Sheathing not only (can have) insulating values, it's a horribly integral part of the structural value of a building. It is unusual in the fact that so many materials can do the function, and the one most chosen usually relates to price.
