If it was properly engineered, sure, why not? It would be no different in principle from driving over a suspension bridge.

I assume all buildibgs I enter are properly engineered, but sometimes they're not. Two cases that come to mind:

Both were essentially caused by people making assumptions. You would think such things would be thought through, but sometimes they're not.
