fire rated assemblies

check out our whitepaper library.
you are on the low end of the scale with respect to the joists.  they are essentially unprotected, since the dropped ceiling offers little.
to gain fire resistance, you will need to add spray-applied fireproofing to the joists, or install a "hard ceiling" with fire-rated gypsum board.
