It is better if you take structural design from any structure engineer.For youe query I am in view that keep the column size 9''x9'' and use 6 nos 16 mm dia steel bars.

Your engineer may be right.But Keeping safety factor in mind i.e. there are earth quack and storm etc and keep the building earth quack proof. Secondly when you are given load of wall and slab to beam which was bear by the column, by that column should be strong.Give proper cover to the steel bars at least 1'' and proper mix of cement concrete be used and do proper curing, there should not be any problem like crack.
