【Haichuan Pipeline Construction】Why does the branch pipe of this heating pipeline have to make a bend in order to connect with the main pipe?

I saw online videos on the construction of heating pipelines; why does the branch pipe of this heating pipeline have to make a bend in order to connect with the main pipe?

I think it’s convenient for future checks. It is also convenient for maintenance. It is convenient for later maintenance and repair.
How to check this location? ? ? It seems that this field will be filled in directly, with no space left for verification
Do you mean to reduce the thrust by using a few elbows? ? ? ?
Will the soil backfilled here become loose in the future? ? ?
Special attention is required for backfilling soil in this area; it cannot bear weight and must be marked accordingly.
I always feel it’s better to have a manhole here
It is likely due to considerations related to thermal stress; with this arrangement, there is an additional right-angle bend, which reduces the thrust exerted on the main pipe. Additionally, when connecting from this direction, the stress on the tee will be better than when connecting horizontally directly.
