The present invention is directed to fiber composite structures, including one or more composite fibers or igneous rock fibers, such as basalt fibers and/or andesite fibers, that are impregnated with a polymer resin and subsequently coated with a frictional additive, such as aluminum oxide. The frictional additive provides for improved frictional engagement when the fiber composite structures are included in concrete or other structural materials and reduces alkaline degradation of the composite structures within the concrete over time. A process for manufacturing the fiber composite structures is also described herein. The process includes inductive heating of the fiber composite structures in order to cure the polymer resin, so as to affectively apply heat without being impeding by the external layer of frictional additive.
