Wikipedia
shelter deck
A deck is a permanent covering over a compartment or a hull of a ship. On a boat or ship, the primary or upper deck is the horizontal structure that forms the "roof" of the hull, strengthening it and serving as the primary working surface. Vessels often have more than one level both within the hull and in the superstructure above the primary deck, similar to the floors of a multi-storey building, that are also referred to as decks, as are certain compartments and decks built over specific areas of the superstructure. Decks for some purposes have specific names.

shelter deck
A shelter deck, in the context of maritime structures, refers to the upper deck of a ship that extends from stem to stern, providing a level of protection and shelter to the space below. It is typically not as strong as the main deck but is designed to resist weather and sea damage, often used for the storage of lifeboats and other equipment. It may also serve as a working area for the crew or a place for passengers.
