Creep =1.8?

Shrinkage = 0.0002?

Yi Bao, TQ for ur reply. Yaya, i am trying to calculate the prestress losses. Recently, i am modelling a post-tensioned pier cap using Adapt ABI software.So, I need to input those value for the prestress losses estimation. Based on BS standard, may i know whether the stated values is appropriate for the prestress losses calculation or not? Or there is still lacking of information?Please remind me.TQ.
