We had a tree fall and hit the house shortly after hurricane Sandy. The tree fell from about 80 feet and where in hit house on roof and broke through wall on 2nd floor it was about 3.5 ft in diameter. Thickest part of broken part of tree was 5.5 ft in diameter. It was a split pine and it fell from the split about 15 ft from ground. Ground was saturated due to storms. Structural engineer said no way tree could have cracked foundation, concrete is too strong. Also, skeptics field is under tree, and D-box is 2.5 ft from tree, concerned that may be damaged as we had a drain pike let go in a bathroom away from the damage, but find it hard to believe it is a coincidence. Any thoughts if this damage could be caused from the force of a falling tree?
Thanks soo much for your help!
