Climbing ropes, especially those with a core that is not visible, are sometimes laid over carpeting so the sharp edge of the rock doesn't wear them out. That would probably work for the rebar.
Maybe a thicker carpeting mat would work for the roof/wall edge? Or maybe the force of the tie down would still damage the edge, so something to spread the force out over a longer distance might be needed. If you could safely split a plastic pipe down the middle that might work, like with a band saw? Cutting plastic pipe that way is a recipe for cutting your hand open too, so be careful.
