Abstract: After a brief description of the common causes of wear to which a reinforced concrete bridge is most easily subject, the so-called wall cracks phenomenon is considered in detail and one limit case of a viaduct in Italy is described. The state of repair of the Polcevera Viaduct at Genoa (Italy) has also been examined, for which, while the static behaviour of the various members is absolutely normal, there is perplexity about the aggressivity of the local atmosphere on the concrete.
