A load transfer mechanism includes an elongated beam and a sensing package. The beam includes a plate with a load-bearing surface, a tube portion, and a neck. The tube portion includes a base wall and a cover and defines a cavity between the base wall and the cover. The base wall laterally extends from a first edge to a second edge that is opposite the first edge. The cover is joined to the base wall at or proximate to the first and second edges. The neck extends between and joins the plate to the cover of the tube portion. The sensing package is disposed within the cavity of the beam and is under pre-load in engagement with the cover and the base wall. The sensing package is configured to measure forces exerted on the load-bearing surface of the plate.
