A method of manufacturing a cured composite structure includes placing a radius filler element into a radius cavity extending along a length of a composite base member formed of dry fiber material comprised of reinforcing fibers. The radius filler element is formed of a radius filler material. The method also includes infusing resin into the dry fiber material, and chemically reacting the resin with the radius filler material to create a mixture of resin and radius filler material along side surface interfaces between the radius filler element and the composite base member. The method additionally includes curing or solidifying the resin, and allowing solvent in the resin to evaporate causing hardening of the mixture and bonding of the radius filler element to the composite base member, and resulting in a cured composite structure.
