HSS post bearing on top of CMU wall (typ. detail)
(OP)
Light weight PEMB with HSS gravity column bearing on top of CMU wall via base plate and anchors through grout. This is something I have not seen before. Any thoughts? any alternate details? I imagine it'd be better to take the post all the way down to foundation rather than stopping at the top of wall.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
