That through dialogues between the authors cited in the bibliographic study, we can better understand the topic in question. The methodological procedures used in this article are based on bibliographic studies, scientific articles and the Internet, which served as the basis for the development and learning of this research. The results of the research are clear, objectives related to the pathologies of civil construction as well as the factors causing this damage, the importance of maintenance, standards and mainly the professionalism of civil works.
