how can I add tile & mortar layer to monolithic stair

Hello, I am a beginner and have some questions about stairs.

 

I made monolithic stairs. Now I would like to add finishes. That would be 3/4" tile and 3/4" mortar. But I am running into multiple issues. And I watched some tutorials online but no luck. And I am too new to Revit so that I don't even know what keyword to type to search. Please see attached for reference.

  1. I used 'Tread Thickness' and 'Riser Thickness' to add 3/4" finish. but I cannot figure out how to add another layer. How can I add 2 finish layers?
  2. I used 'Right Support' to add side finish. It is 1 piece of parallelogram shape. What can I do to make that to follow step shape?
  3. I made 2 multi-landing. As you can see, I cannot add a finish to "riser" part of landing. What can I do?
  4. How can I add a finish to the bottom part of stairs? I can use paint tool, but is there a way to add a layer?

Thank you in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!

Double tread?  Overlap 2 stair types.  

 

Finish layer at underside of stairs?  Roof by Extrusion.

    • Either use a 2nd stair element as suggested by @barthbradley 
    • OR use Extrusions (in-place) then use Assembly to pack them together with the stair
  2. I used 'Right Support' to add side finish. It is 1 piece of parallelogram shape. What can I do to make that to follow step shape? 
    • Edit the Stair type and Set the Support to Carriage Open
    • Alternatively use a basic wall and edit its profile or an in-place extrusion 
  3. I made 2 multi-landing. As you can see, I cannot add a finish to "riser" part of landing. What can I do?
    • If the riser is the same finish of the tread, you can integrate the risers in the same profile of the trad
  4. How can I add a finish to the bottom part of stairs? I can use paint tool, but is there a way to add a layer?
    • Either an in-place extrusion or a roof element 

Thank you in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you @RDAOU and @barthbradley ! Your answers are great solutions.

I use Revit LT, and am going to upgrade it to full version when I get better. So unfortunately an in-place modeling is not an option for me now.
