what is the term that describes the installation of pipework in a new build?

is it building regulations?
 
ok i am reading through this book plumbing level 2 JTL 2nd edition. i finished plumbing processes and well at the end of each section there is a knowledge test and its killing that i don't know the last question.

1st fix relates to estimating from site.
 
no first fix is the first half of the process of piping up a building before commissioning. i.e. placing pipework where it needs to be for all the services
 
Seems to me that book learning ain't learning at all.
It poses more questions than answers!

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
