&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color:#008000;color:#ffffff;font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:x-large;"&gt;Answer:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;There is nothing in GOST R51274-99.8 to limit the half apex angle of the skirt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;But this is a usual rule, this limitation exists in AD S3/1 4.2 and in CODAP C9.7.1. (French code) to avoid the increase of bending moment due to the horizontal component of the compressive load.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Note well: the message (#35) is a Warning not an Error since there is nothing in GOST.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
