What is the difference between initial and residual preload


What is the difference between initial and residual preload? Typically, what percentage of the work we do with a torque wrench ends up as preload in an individual bolt?

Is the preload mentioned above initial or residual preload? What would be the result if we lubricated the bolts in a given joint for the first time and reduced the friction loss during tightening by 3%?
