Technical blinding is differnet from the Strip footing but there is a general confusion about what both represent. Blinding is different from strip footing and they both serve different functions.
I want to assume by blinding you mean the strip footing. The footing is meant to be design based on the load of the building but from experience and similarities in load carrying capacity of our bungalows, the stop fitting should fall within the range of 150mm - 225mm a have a width of 675mm.
