To investigate the stress states at different depths within the fault zone, this study systematically analyzed the in-situ stress field of the Yingxiu-Beichuan Fault through borehole wall image logs and core samples from the Wenchuan Earthquake Fault Scientific Drilling Project Hole 2 (WFSD-2). Combined with previous research findings, six depth intervals (424–569 m, 958–1163 m, 1271–1357 m, 1523–1623 m, 1870–2081 m, 2112–2178 m) were identified, with mean maximum horizontal principal stress orientations of 318°, 301°, 291°, 306°, 328°, and 190°, respectively, showing ∼20° inter-segment variations.
