The gasket assembly includes an insulating gasket configured for a main section thereof to be positioned between the ceiling track and floor underside, the main section defining first and second lateral sides which are spaced from one another a distance at least equal to the given width. A secondary gasket is associated with the insulating gasket and includes a sealing member extending outwardly relative to the first lateral side and configured to engage an upper portion of the at least one wall panel and a portion of the floor underside and form a seal between the at least one wall and the floor underside.
