Her work bridges the gap between pure chemistry and practical engineering. Unlike many technical authors who write only for researchers, Bertolini has a unique talent for explaining complex degradation phenomena—such as carbonation of concrete, steel corrosion, or sulfate attack—in a logical, step-by-step manner. Her textbooks are the standard reference for most Italian university courses in Civil Engineering (Ingegneria Civile), Building Engineering (Ingegneria Edile), and Architecture.
