The present paper uses the mathematic model for consolidation of unsaturated soil developed in [\textit{Z.Chen}, Appl. Math. Mech. 14, No. 2, 137-150 (1993)] to solve boundary value problems. The analytical solutions for one-dimensional consolidation problem are gained by making use of Laplace transform and finite Fourier transform. The displacement and the pore water pressure as well as the pore gas pressure are found from governing equations simultaneously. The theoretical formulae for coefficient and degree of consolidation are also given. With the help of the method of Galerkin weighted residuals, the finite element equations for two-dimensional consolidation problem are derived and a FORTRAN program named CSU8 and using 8-node isoparametric element is designed.
