When drawings stairs, do you show everything above a floor in the plan view? I.E. a 3rd floor stair plan would show the structure at the floor, plus the stringers, landings, etc up to the 4th floor?

For a multi-story switchback stair, we usually show 2 landings and half a flight of stairs above and below.
 

Common to take your plan section 1' above FF... shows a little going up and most of the down... in my experience.

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

Here is a model and the corresponding sketches I used to develop some drawings. However, the way you draw them differs between offices.
**EDIT**: I left the sizes, dimensions, and details out because this was for architectural review, but that's how our office likes to display stairs. Only a reference and not, by any means, the only way of doing something.
