You could also weld a flange/baseplate onto the edge of the pipe, 2"-3" dia pipe, use a square plate say 6"x6" on the bottom, stick weld a continuous weld at the base, pre -drill 4 1/2" diameter fastener holes near each corner before welding make a template if you wish, do as many as you need, mild steel is fine, once welded wire wheel off all the mill scale on new steel, clean with solvent and use cold zinc galv spray, so it won't rust anytime soon and then drill the slab with the template and install pipe with a baseplate fasten with a sleeve anchor, wedge bolt, expansion bolt, ie; Hilti, what have you and it's done.
Other way you could lay out the posts, core drill oversize of the pipe diameter, set, and fill with a high strength grout or similar that will bond strong to the metal and the existing concrete, non shrink type material and obtain the same compressive strength as the concrete, though I think the mechanical fasteners would be stronger and easier, + done as soon as you install those fasteners.
Also, be careful with edge distances, hopefully your posts are not too close to any edge of the slab, either core drilling or using mechanical fasteners.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
