Here is the part-wise answer to your question:

1) In this extract, 'fractured' implies broken and damaged houses of cement which have not been able to withstand the storm. It also creates a distinction between the protagonist's own pucca house and the cement ones.

2) 'Their' refers to Prashant's friend and his family.

3) The two coconut trees which had fallen on the roof of the house led to the breaking of coconuts from them and helped the family from starving.
