RE: Allowed? Masonry column as lfrs in seismic cat D/E?
One of the code references in there is outdated. Check out ACI 530-13 7.4 for seismic detailing requirements to include columns.
I'd also suggest moving this thread to the either the Structural Engineering General Discussion forum or the Moment Frame & Shear Wall Engineering forum. You'll get more structural engineers there to pitch in their 2 cents.
