The research into the activation of materials used for accelerator components is held in GSI as a part of studies of FAIR relevant materials. In the frame of these studies the project "Verification of Monte Carlo transport codes: FLUKA, MARS and SHIELD" was started. Series of irradiations were already done. This work presents the results of irradiation of aluminum target with uranium beam. Experimentally achieved depth profiles of residual activity and stopping range of primary ions are compared with Monte Carlo simulations. Correspondences and discrepancies of different codes with experiment are discussed.
