Abrégé

Disclosed is a fastener assembly comprising: a bolt member, comprising a bolt head and a shank, at least a part of which is screw threaded; a nut member for threaded engagement with the shank; a first drive element allocated to the bolt member and a second drive element allocated to the nut member, each drive element comprising a body and adapted for engagement by a corresponding tool. The body of the first drive element is joined to the bolt member by a first interposed interlayer structure. The body of the second drive element is joined to the nut member by a second interposed interlayer structure. The first interlayer structure is adapted to fracture in response to relative rotational and/or tensile force applied to the first drive element. The second interlayer structure is adapted to fracture in response to relative rotational and/or tensile force applied to the second drive element.
