*Recently IAEA has been conducting a coordinated research project to update the FENDL-2.1 nuclear data library to FENDL-3. In the present study, FENDL-3, Starter Library, Release 4 (FENDL-3/SLIB4) has been extensively tested through analysis of many fusion relevant benchmark problems. FENDL-3/SLIB4 gives better results for the FNG ITER shielding benchmark and the tungsten benchmark experiments than the previous FENDL-2.1. As for the shielding benchmark in the neutron energy range above 20 MeV, the TIARA transmission experiments through iron and concrete using p-Li quasi-monoenergetic neutron source have been analyzed. FENDL-3/SLIB4 provides satisfactory results for the TIARA shielding benchmark through iron. For concrete, however, some discrepancy was found. The present analysis suggests importance of 16 O data in
