		Abstract: Damage accompanying the Managua, Nicaragua, earthquake of Dec. 23, 1972, demonstrated that surface fault rupture is a significant hazard in Managua and must be considered in seismic zoning.

		The scope of this report is restricted to earthquake-related effects in the Managua metropolitan area, that is, a few kilometers from the center of the city, to geologic conditions within that area and to the relations between observed damage patterns and geologic conditions.
