Slab is easier to get through plan check if they decide that day to enforce seismic loads, but a post of 12 inch diameter concrete with beam saddles on top for wood the rest of the way up work very well to have the wood above "splash" level, and have a bit more seismic/weight strength than wood. To at least tempt them to plan check it without "Engineering".
