    Best way of finding roof joists for solar installation

    I’m in the process of installing my solar array and want to ensure my thinking is right. Am I right to assume that the visual line running width wise about every 24 inches are the joists? Guess I would have assumed closer to 16” being that you can walk on the roof. Also, anyone know how thick the sheathing is?

    Thanks!

    EDIT
    Okay, so I’m way off lol! The “lines” that I’m referring to are 48” apart so assuming those are the edges of the sheathing. I’ve taken a stud find up but it doesn’t seem to be able to detect the joists.
