Ruidong Chang joined the University of Adelaide in 2020, after working as a joint research fellow at Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore, and Department of Building, National University of Singapore, and an assistant professor at Bond University. His specialised research area is building a multi-dimensional (Materials-Energy-Emissions nexus) environmental monitoring and modelling platform for construction projects through advanced data collection and processing techniques. Optimising one environmental aspect (e.g. reducing energy consumption) may be achieved by a compromised performance on other aspects (e.g. increased material usage). Therefore, a truly sustainable system needs to be designed considering whole-spectrum, multi-dimensional environmental impacts simultaneously.
He has participated in various research projects funded or supported by institutions such as the Building Construction Authority of Singapore, National Science Foundation of China and International Energy Agency.

Ruidong's field of research is construction management. His team conducts interdisciplinary research linking construction engineering, computer science, environmental governance and management science to address grand environmental challenges facing the construction sector.
His research focus is 1) at the project level, building a multi-dimensional (Materials-Energy-Emissions nexus) environmental monitoring (what happened) and modelling (what could happen) systems for built environments through advanced data collection and processing techniques such as Building Information Modelling, ultimately enabling the formation of Environmental Digital Twins for Construction. Based on this foundation, Ruidong then looks at 2) the adoption decision making of environmental-friendly techniques e.g. solar PV and prefabrications in buildings by households, construction firms and the industry, using various management and behaviour theories such as the socio-technical transition theory, innovation diffusion theory and the theory of planned behaviour. All of these areas are examined under the direction of Construction 5.0, namely how to leverage new technologies to enable sustainable construction.
His team is currently working on the following topics:
Monitor construction schedule
Construction schedule monitoring through integrating low-cost laser scanning, computer vision and building information modelling (BIM)-PhD student Yanquan Zhang
Monitor particle emissions
Particulate matters monitoring and visualisations for construction activities through integrating sensors, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and virtual reality-PhD student Xingyue Fang
Monitor materials and waste
Material flow analysis (MFA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) of plastic wastes from construction-PhD student Liancheng Li
