An existing structure requires structural reassessment when:
- its reliability is inadequate, also due to misuse or human errors;
- the structure is modified and/or enlarged;
- the category of use of the structure is improved and/or its
design working life is increased;
- the structure has been damaged or deteriorated by environmental, chemical or biological, attack or by more general time dependent effects;
- the structure has been damaged by accidental loads (earthquake, explosion) or by settlements or by other unintentional events like impacts, vibrations, water losses, floods, bridge scuor, debris accumulation and so on.

According to the flow charts reported in ISO 13822, the investigation process involves the acquisition of all relevant information concerning: the original design and structural conception of the structure, as well as the reference structural codes, if any; the sequence of structural modifications during its life, addition or demolition of structural parts and/or deep maintenance interventions; actual material properties; soil and foundations; actual damage and/or crack patterns and/or failure; required performance level.

Bridges were built in 1887-1890 as railway bridges linking the Carrara marble caves and the Marina di Carrara harbour.

In 1913 several cracks appeared in the 4th piers and the bridge was propped by strong timber beams shown in the photo. Reasons of the failure were probably mainly poor quality workmanship of the masonry and lateral settlement of the piers due to earth (marble gravel) pressure.

A Carrara travel guide issued in 1931 attributes the failure to pier mining (sabotage), but there is no evidence in 1913 newspapers. Other folk sources dates sabotage to 3rd April 1899 due to loss of work of cartwrights due to train transportation, but again there is no documentation about.
