Clamp force losses of bolted joints in service often cause serious accidents. Therefore it is very important to check the clamp force at maintenance. In our previous study, a method to easily detect the clamp force was developed. The method can detect the clamp force within error of ±10%. In this study, we have achieved FE analysis for the bolted joint which clamp force is being detected in order to reduce the detection error. As the result of FE analysis, it was seen that the detection accuracy can be improved by means of reviewing the detectional condition.
