Bulkhead deck - bulkhead deck

Japanese: 隔壁甲板 - かくへきこうはん
Bulkhead deck - bulkhead deck

...However, since it is difficult to theoretically consider unforeseen maritime accidents such as damage to a ship, the methods for designing watertight compartments and the standards for them are largely based on experience.
[Layout of watertight compartments]
A watertight partition inside a ship is called a watertight bulkhead, and the deck adjacent to the top of the bulkhead is called a bulkhead deck. As shown in the figure, watertight bulkheads are usually called transverse bulkheads and are installed to create several watertight compartments along the length of the ship, but in tankers, tanks are further arranged in two or three rows by longitudinal bulkheads.

*Some of the terminology used to refer to "bulkhead deck" is listed below.
