Fastener systems may be used to couple a part to a composite structure such that at least a portion of the fastener system is embedded within the composite structure, and such that the fastener system may be installed via access to just one side of the composite structure. Examples of fastener systems include a receptacle that is inserted through at least one layer of the composite structure and a torque nail that is inserted into the receptacle, thereby expanding the receptacle into a collar plate, which is configured to distribute the forces from insertion of the torque nail. The collar plate is enclosed between respective laminates of the composite structure, such that the fastener system is configured to couple the part to the composite structure, either directly or via a structural connector, without the use of conventional drilling and bolting.
