Any tree that has a grade change over its roots within the driplines (outside diameter of the trees branches and leaves) will eventually die. There are ways to minimize the problem by the use of tree wells ( circular brick or block wall prevents deep fill around the trunk area) and by aeration, placing about 6" to 1 foot of stone on the original ground everywhere the roots are filled over within the dripline.
