Bulkheads are numbered and divide a ship into separate parts to help keeping its rigidity. Bulkheads in Starfleet vessels built in the 24th century are made from a tritanium alloy and can be reinforced with shields to enhance the ship's overall structural integrity. (VOY: "Repentance")
In case of structural failure, a bulkhead can be beamed away and temporarily replaced by a force field. (TNG: "Schisms")
