Abstract
This report is the result of a seismic risk study conducted at Stanford and supported by Banco Central de Nicaragua and the National Science Foundation grant GI 39122.   The total seismic risk analysis of Nicaragua is done in two parts.  This report is Part I of our study.  In general, Part I is associated with the future probable seismic loading determination of Nicaragua and how that loading can be used to determine future damage potential and "insurance risk".
