The invention provides a 
flood discharge structure of a concrete 
gravity dam. The structure is arranged at an overflow dam section of the concrete 
gravity dam. The 
flood discharge structure comprisesa water 
retaining wall of the overflow dam section, an overflow wall distributed at the upstream side of the water 
retaining wall, an overflow groove formed in the downstream side of the overflow wall, a water collecting 
pool formed at the upstream side of the water 
retaining wall, a stilling sill arranged at the bottom of the water collecting 
pool, and a vertical shaft type 
spillway formed in theoverflow dam section. The vertical shaft type 
spillway comprises a vertical shaft 
flood discharge section, a horizontal flood 
discharge section and a connecting flood 
discharge section connected between the vertical shaft flood 
discharge section and the horizontal flood discharge section; the upper end of the vertical shaft flood discharge section extends to the bottom of the water collecting 
pool and is communicated with the water collecting pool; and an outlet of the horizontal flood discharge section is located in a downstream river channel. According to the flood discharge structure of the concrete 
gravity dam, by arranging the overflow wall, the width of a water inlet 
front edge can be increased, and the flood discharge capacity is improved; and discharged 
water flow is collected through the water collecting pool, so that the width of the discharged water flowing into a river is reduced, energy dissipation is conducted on the discharged 
water flow through the stilling still and the vertical shaft type 
spillway, and scouring of the discharged 
water flow to a downstream side slope is reduced.
