The present application is directed toward fire-rated wall construction components and wall systems for use in building construction. Embodiments can include tracks for holding studs which incorporate various geometries capable of receiving fire-retardant material, flat straps for use between tracks and fluted wall components, fire sponges for use in fluted wall components, and tracks with protruding grooves or other structures which prevent unwanted air movement between a wallboard component and the track.

1. A fire-rated stud framing wall and ceiling member system for inhibiting transmission of smoke and sound, the system comprising: a bottom track comprising a web, a first flange and a second flange, the first and second flanges extending in an upward direction from opposing side edges of the web, the bottom track defining an interior space between the web and the inwardly-facing surfaces of the first and second flanges;a plurality of studs that are spaced from one another along the bottom track, each of the plurality of studs having a bottom end received within the interior space of the bottom track, each of the plurality of studs extending in a generally vertical direction from the bottom track;a top track comprising a web, a first flange and a second flange, the first and second flanges extending in a downward direction from opposing side edges of the web, the top track defining an interior space between the web and the inwardly-facing surfaces of the first and second flanges, wherein upper ends of each of the plurality of studs are received within the interior space of the top track;a ceiling member comprising at least one flute extending along a length of the ceiling member; andan elongate flat strap positioned between the top track and the ceiling member, the elongate flat strap configured to cover the at least one flute, the elongate flat strap comprising: a first gasket extending along a length of the elongate flat strap, the first gasket adhered to the elongate flat strap on a surface that faces the ceiling member; anda second gasket extending along the length of the elongate flat strap, the second gasket adhered to the elongate flat strap on the surface that faces the ceiling member,wherein the elongate flat strap is fastened to the ceiling member such that the first and second gaskets are pressed against the ceiling member. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein at least one of the first and second gaskets comprise a fire-retardant material. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the elongate flat strap has a width greater than a width of the at least one flute. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the top track is positioned between the first and second gaskets. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the elongate flat strap is fastened to the ceiling member by fasteners, and wherein the fasteners penetrate the first and second gaskets. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the elongate flat strap comprises preformed fastener holes for receiving the fasteners. 7. The system of claim 5, wherein the elongate flat strap comprises markings that locate positions on the elongate flat strap for inserting the fasteners. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the elongate flat strap has a width of 6 to 8 inches and a thickness of 20 gauge. 9. The system of claim 1, wherein the elongate flat strap is formed from steel. 10. A fire-rated wall component for inhibiting transmission of smoke and sound between a track and a horizontal wall component, the horizontal wall component including at least one flute extending along a length of the horizontal wall component, the component comprising: an elongate flat strap positioned between the track and the horizontal wall component, the elongate flat strap configured to cover the at least one flute;a first gasket extending along a length of the elongate flat strap, the first gasket adhered to the elongate flat strap on a surface that faces the horizontal wall component; anda second gasket extending along the length of the elongate flat strap, the second gasket adhered to the elongate flat strap on the surface that faces the horizontal wall component,wherein the elongate flat strap is fastened to the horizontal wall component such that the first and second gaskets are pressed against the horizontal wall component. 11. The component of claim 10, wherein at least one of the first and second gaskets comprise a fire-retardant material. 12. The component of claim 10, wherein the elongate flat strap has a width greater than a width of the at least one flute. 13. The component of claim 10, wherein the track is positioned between the first and second gaskets. 14. The component of claim 10, wherein the elongate flat strap is fastened to the horizontal wall component by fasteners, and wherein the fasteners penetrate the first and second gaskets. 15. The component of claim 14, wherein the elongate flat strap comprises preformed fastener holes for receiving the fasteners. 16. The component of claim 14, wherein the elongate flat strap comprises markings that locate positions on the elongate flat strap for inserting the fasteners. 17. The component of claim 10, wherein the elongate flat strap has a width of 6 to 8 inches and a thickness of 20 gauge. 18. The component of claim 10, wherein the elongate flat strap is formed from steel.
