Spanish term or phrase: programa de usos

Is there a proper term for this in the field of architecture? Thanks

Esta intervención ha sido posible gracias al arquitecto Ramón Fernández-Alonso, quien con su proyecto ordena el ***programa de usos*** solicitados haciéndolos compatibles con las capacidades espaciales existentes en el edificio histórico (finales del siglo XVIII) y propone además un nuevo volumen para aquellas partes del programa que requieren mayor dimensión.

It looks like you're right. I was using the UK spelling (programme), so maybe this is used in the US and Canada but not in the UK, in which case, you deserve the points. Thanks!

program of uses

Explanation:
The 'architectural program' is a very common technical term in the field. I have used it frequently translating architecture books and magazines.

Example sentence(s):

The study included a building assessment, a program of uses from the owner, a building code analysis, schematic design drawings, a scope of work
Further, the architecture resolves a complex program of uses in that it provides distinctive accommodation for all the components and a singular contemporary identity for the project.
