Does a demising wall frame from floor to roof or floor to ceiling?

Since a demising wall typically separates tenants it should go from the floor to the roof, or from the floor to the floor structure above leaving no openings for sound, smoke or fire passage. Each local code is different on exactly what type of construction is required for this wall so it's best to research the code before any decisions are made.
