What makes you think that Altium files should be available?

If you go to the Product Page for the board, schematics, etc, will be under 'CAD Resources'

The gerber files in CAD Resources is empty, so i think the layout and altium files can be available

You're assuming that ST use Altium.

Other systems are available ...

I can't see a Product Page for "steval-1sa170v1" - can you give a link?

Thanks.

So I see Gerbers, BoM, and Schematics all available for download there:

The Gerbers download as a Zip; the BoM and Schematics as PDFs:

i couldn't open the gerber files. so i asked for the layout or what is the method to open it?

Well, GERBER data is actually only intended for plotting a layout or producing a board, similar to PDF, which is also only intended for printing and not for re-layouting. However, you can use a GERBER viewer to orientate yourself on details from its data and derive your own layout. There are GERBER viewers that you can use for free, e.g. the one in the KiCAD package.

It may be that online GERBER viewers have problems with the file extensions and you may have to change them to .GBR. The KiCAD viewer does not pay attention to this and interprets the content of the files and displays them if they are GERBER data:
