The 60" cyl. volume is a rule relevant during game play, not an inspection point. Inspectors look for compliance to the inspection list. If they see a static condition on your bot that vilolates a robot rule, they will call it. If your bot is physically capable of breaking the 60" rule, they may give you a dire warning about it, but it is the field official's job to determine if you broke the envelope. Part of their method of doing so may be to measure what it is capable of, and make a judgement on whether it happened. Obviously the best advice is to stay away from issue and not be capable of breaking the envelope, but that is a risk judgement you have to make.
