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.
