ABSTRACT:
A fastener for use in securing a stack of members together comprises a head adapted to be embedded in an outer surface of the stack and a shank adapted to extend through an aperture in the stack so that a tail projects beyond the other outer surface of the stack. As the head is embedded, material in the stack is displaced and develops residual compressive stresses around the hole in the vicinity of the head; as the tail is upset, the shank expands radially to provide an interference fit with the aperture and develops residual tensile stresses around the hole. In the vicinity of the head, these tensile stresses are superimposed upon the previously developed compressive stresses.
