Default help finding the truss in my lanai

OK. I'm actually pretty handy and thought the task to find two trusses to hang a heavy piece from in my lanai would be a 20 minute job.

I initially used a stud finder and got no valid results. Then I drilled small test holes 18 and 24 inches form the wall ...no luck.

Anybody know what the "standard" spacing is for trusses in a lanai?

Any idea why the stud finder didn't locate the truss?
