Bolt-supporting technology has been widely used in mine roadway support, and its own working conditions have important reference value for roadway safety support. In order to realize the continuous and reliable monitoring of the bolt rod's working condition, this paper analyzes the existing problems of the existing fiber Bragg grating force-measuring bolt (FBG-FMB), and proposes a fiber grating strain desensitization sensing theory. Based on this theory, a desensitized FBG-FMB is developed with the spring as the elastic sensitive element. A mechanical analysis and drawing test show that the strain of the force-measuring bolt is greater than 60 times the micro-strain of the fiber grating, which verifies the feasibility of the structure design of the FBG-FMB. Finally, through the field application in the coal mine roadway, the working conditions of the bolt body at the two measuring points of the roadway are obtained to verify the reliability of the force-measuring bolt. In addition, the desensitized FBG-FMB can be widely used in the supporting fields of underground engineering such as slopes, tunnels, and foundation pits.
