Try this:
This is your initial matrix (or alike) in a form of a table

M = {{1, 0, 0, 0}, {2, 3, 0, 0}, {4, 5, 6, 0}, {7, 8, 9, 10}} // Grid


That is what you need:

Table[If[i > j, M[[i, j]], M[[j, i]]], {i, 1, Length[M[[1]]]}, {j, 1,
   Length[M[[1]]]}] // Grid

??


please help me with simple to apply function that will construct
symmetric matrix from given just a half matrix with diagonal.
Eg:

From:
1  0  0  0
2  3  0  0
4  9  5  0
2  2  3  4

To give:

1  2  4  2
2  3  9  2
4  9  5  3
2  2  3  4
