A toot assembly for a weighing scale is provided including a base and an annular ring that is arranged in coaxial spaced relation to the base, and supported by a plurality of resilient beams that project radially outwardly from a portion of the base. Each of the resilient beams comprises a compound curve contour so that the plurality of resilient beams may twist and/or bend to take up and compensate for unwanted rotational moments or twisting torques that result from placement of the foot assembly on an uneven surface. A weighing scale is also provided incorporating the foregoing foot assemblies, and including a platform coupled to a mounting tray and including a weight determination assembly that is positioned between the platform and the mounting tray. A plurality of force transfer beams are arranged within the mounting tray so as to substantially support the platform and the mounting tray such that the mounting tray is isolated from a support surface. In this way, forces that are applied to the weighing scale by the placement of a load on the platform are transferred to the plurality of force transfer beams, without direct interaction between the mounting tray and the support surface.
