I would use something heavier than the strapping, either a long heavy tie plate (the ones hanging next to the rebar at HD) or some kind of post or column base, viz

Tie the lower part of the bracket to the rebar.
Some construction of exactly this sort just went up on Kilauea, across from/near the 76 station. Stack of hollow blocks, filled with concrete, big glue-lam beams across the top. The property slopes down, so the stilts put the apartments at eye level with the street.
Consider that large enough beams might require a crane or some kind of rigging.
