is this normal or not?

Не знаю, сталкивался ли кто-нибудь с интересной особенностью, но когда 2 дубликата встают рядом и начинают строить несколько плиток или лестниц (или в этот момент появляется второй дубликат),
то первый может остановить строительство на 75% здания и второй дубликант продолжает за него достраивать (а первый дубликант начинает строить что-то новое рядом)

такое происходит при низком фпс (возможно) с нормальным количеством кадров проверить не могу, происходит ли такое)

Not quite. I am not opposed top you posting in a language most people here cannot read, but could you add a translation, please? Can be machine-generated, in the past nobody seemed to mind. 

Here is what Google translate makes from your posting:

I don't know if anyone has encountered an interesting feature, but when 2 duplicates stand next to each other and start building several tiles or stairs (or at this moment a second duplicate appears), then the first one can stop the construction of 75% of the building and the second duplicate continues to complete the construction for it (and the first duplicate begins to build something new nearby) This happens at a low FPS (possibly) with a normal number of frames, I can't check if this happens)

As to your question, I think this is an effect of the regular task scheduling, especially with "Enable Proximity".

haha, I kept translating my messages, I don’t know how it happened) 
in short, the duplicates can stop building a cell and start building the next one, and what is not completed begins to be built by the next duplicate. This usually happens when duplicates are standing next to each other.

No worries, it happens.

Hmm. Actually, a dupe should only stop finishing construction when something really high priority interrupts them, like running to the toilet. You say you see this with the first dupe just doing another construction task nearby. That should not be enough to interrupt, I think. I guess there is some "replanning" event that is not really obvious. I do remember that at least recently I saw dupes also interrupting construction when I did not really see a reason. But another dupe always finished the construction soon, potentially after running over half the map, so not much of an issue in practical terms.

But it does sound like a bug in the dupe task-scheduling. Maybe after some (hidden?) replanning event, the algorithm only assures that the construction task is continued, but does not require the same dupe to continue it. 

So: Possibly not normal.

I was able to reproduce this, here you can clearly see how the biobot intercepts the construction)

but here it’s not clear who took the initiative

I'm a real fan of the game and played for about 100 cycles, always speed x3))

Definitely an interesting observation and one to keep in mind. Good eye there on your part. I expect this will only get fixed if it starts to cause real problems though.

I think this will cause problems when there are few duplicates. Mostly biobots take over the construction task, but in the second video 2 duplicates on the left also conflict with each other for building the stairs

this also causes a visual bug (duplicants lose tools from their hands)

p.s I also noticed that this provokes 2 duplicates to complete one task to build a building
