It depends on state law. I realize this sounds odd, but in some states, a sign on a building carries no legal weight, and in some states it does. HOWEVER, if you carry a concealed weapon into a building and for some reason the owner or person who controls the property finds out and asks you to leave, if you refuse to leave, you are then trespassing.

Additional: If by "public building" you actually mean a government building - NO - you may not go armed into any government building!\

That depends on the state, and also whether it is federal property. In Tennessee for instance, there is no law against carrying in a government building as long as the building isn't posted with a no weapons sign. The exception is federally owned property, but as far as state, county, or city government buildings, it's perfectly legal if the building isn't posted.
