A discussion came up about whether we should be prohibiting masonry cement in our specs. Specifically, we prohibit masonry cement (ASTM C-91/91M) but allow using mortar cement (ASTM C-1329/1329M). Are the differences between the two significant enough to prohibit masonry cement? Is there a case where masonry cement can be used interchangeably?

This post is close to 15 years old, and some of our engineers want to know if prohibiting masonry cement is still valid / common.
