actually I am wondering, wether it's possivle modelling stairs in archicad with a seperate stairflight as precast concrete part and a stair landing made from in-situ concrete.
We need the following result in a section view:

I would go with a morph or a complex profile unless you need a stair object for a specific reason. I still use morphs more than not for stairs versus the stair object. It has gotten better, but not there just yet.

probably best to model as separate parts. The best approach I have found with the stair is to not try to get it all done in one element.
Think about it like any other building element; you wouldn't try to model an entire elevation out of a single wall. You build it as it would be built in reality; platform framed with separations for material changes, thicknesses, finishes, insulation, etc.
The stair is no different. Just because you can model a large complex stair as a single unit, doesn't mean you should (at least not in all instances).
In this case, the BIM-ness of the model would indicate that the landing is a different thing than the stair. So the landing is modeled with slabs, beams, etc. Then the stair can be a stair for each separate string. You may need to play with the plan view setting a bit to get it to show up the way you need, but it's definitely possible.

just uncheck this tick, to seperate stairflight and landing attributes
and theese settings for junction

set your tread thicknes to 0

@Ahmed_K that already looks great, does it work with a U-shaped stair as well? or, a stair with 3 flights and 2 landings, in order to build one stair object which includes all landings and flights which geometrically all are separated from each other (maybe with a gap of 1-1,5cm?

It works for any stair shape,
If you need a gap of 1 cm, then, you have to model flights and landings seperately,
