Loud sounds from Attic

Kb1001

We recently moved to our newly built home. In the night, I sometimes hear loud bang noise from the attic. Initially I thought it could be a loose plumbing pipe. Then one nigt I shut off all the water and still heard this loud noise. There is no scratching sound, so I don't think there is a rodent up there...

Also the noise happen randomly in the night. I don't see any cracks on the ceiling or on the joints of ceiling and walls but is it possible there is truss uplift happening and resulting in the loud noise. Most of the time the noise comes from the area where I have longest trusses spanning from one end of the house to other end.
