Actually I checked my own installation of v16.0.2 and apparently the a10_ref BSP was not at all shipped with that version. I think that was because Arria 10 support was still in beta stage. I think my supervisor got the BSP from Altera. You can probably ask Altera directly for the BSP. The BSP from v16.1 will most likely not work since Quartus requires the BSP version to be exactly the same as the Quartus version.
