The bulkhead is a wall running perpendicular to the length of the ship. Bulkheads divide a ship into sections along its length. The design of the bulkheads was a fatal flaw in the titanic because the bulkheads didn't go all the way up to the deck. Since the bulkheads only went part of the way up, the ship filled with water much like an ice-cube tray that's being filled with water. If the bulkheads had gone all the way up to the deck, only a portion of the ship would've filled with water and the ship wouldn't have sank.
"But even this was misleading. The Great Eastern's bulkheads were carried 30 feet above the waterline; the Titanic's, only 10 feet." -"The Night Lives On", pg. 21 This means that the bulkheads was 10 feet (3,04 m) above the waterline.
The main way it to have watertight doors and bulkheads.
