You are thinking of a wall that surrounds an outdoor area - a brick wall.
Inside buildings, walls can be made of anything - brick, wood, plasterboard, glass and so on.They simply divide the space into separate areas or rooms.

Now that the question about 'walls' has been answered, I'll add that bunks are often in two layers to make use of the free space above the first bed. This is very common in kids' bedrooms in the US - then the kids who share the same room have more floor space to play in.
