The Invention is a fastening apparatus and method for transferring a load to a core of a composite structure, such as a composite panel used in ship construction. The apparatus comprises an insert. The insert is adapted to receive a tension load and adapted to transfer the tension load substantially to the core of the composite structure. The strain response characteristics of the insert in tension generally minimize the strain response of the core in shear.
