Is there any reason stopping me building 1 course of engineering bricks off the ground beam, then installing my block and beam flooring on top. I would obviously excavate in between the ground beam enough to give me the minimum 150mm void. My drawings show 2 courses of bricks and the infill level with the ground beam.

You should be alright make sure your the end of your beams are either wrapped in DPM or not protruding into the cavity as your external dpc will be higher
