In nautical architecture and maritime terminology, a deck is a permanent floor-like horizontal structure running across the hull of a ship or boat that serves as a structural surface, covers the compartments below, and provides working space for crew members and equipment. Depending on its vertical position and function within the vessel, a ship's deck can be designated as the main deck, weather deck, poop deck, forecastle, or flight deck on aircraft carriers, each serving critical operational roles.
