Summary:A joint for a metallic skin structure includes a first end portion and a second end portion positioned in an overlying relationship with each other. A first row of a first plurality of bores, within the first end portion, have adjacent bores spaced apart from one another. A second row of a second plurality of bores, within the second end portion have adjacent bores spaced apart from one another. First common central axis is defined by a first bore of each of the first and second plurality of bores. Second common central axis is defined by a second bore of each of the first and second plurality of bores. A line of securement extends between the first and second common central axes. At least one reinforcement fiber embedded within one of the first or second end portion extending orthogonal to and on either side of the line of securement.
