Coach boltExample (http://technologystudent.com/images2/bolt1.gif)

This type of bolt has a small head that allows it to fit/locks into the wood slightly allowing it to be a tight fit.

Two spaners are needed to tighten these. One on the bolt and one on the nut. (With nuts and bolts you only ever tighten the nut)
